GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Florida announced today that it has added a home-and-home series with North Carolina State to its schedules for the 2026 and 2032 football seasons. The Gators will face the Wolfpack in Raleigh, N.C., in 2026, and UF will host NC State for a non-conference contest in 2032.
The two programs have met 14 times, with the Gators holding a 9-4-1 series advantage. The last matchup between the two schools took place on New Year's Eve at the 1992 Gator Bowl, where Florida earned a 27-10 victory in Jacksonville.
