The Florida Gators have not begun a season with a 2‑0 record in five years, a drought that made the recent 66‑21 triumph over Florida Atlantic especially encouraging for the program.
Campbell University enters the matchup riding a perfect 2‑0 start after a 28‑19 win over Western Carolina, and its dual‑threat quarterback Kamden Sixkiller has already amassed 673 passing yards, four touchdowns and three interceptions, while also adding 114 rushing yards and three scores.
Florida’s own backfield showed playmaking ability in the opener, as quarterback Aaron Philo threw for 275 yards and four touchdowns, while running back Jadan Baugh contributed 160 yards and three scores, and wide receiver Vernell Brown III posted a team‑high six receptions for 117 yards and a touchdown.
Defensively, the Gators forced three turnovers, with linebacker Myles Graham leading the charge with 10 tackles, underscoring the unit’s early-season aggressiveness.
The contest is slated for 5:30 p.m. Eastern Time on September 12 at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium, and will be televised on the SEC Network+ with a simultaneous stream on Fubo TV, which offers a free trial for new subscribers.
With the season still young, the upcoming showdown offers the Gators a chance to silence the five‑year 2‑0 start drought and establish momentum heading into conference play.
