  06/27/22 - ILB Mohamoud DiabateSr/2023, Utah

  The first, and only, meeting between Utah and Florida in football happened 45 years ago. That day, on Nov. 19, 1977, the Gators defeated the Utes in their homecoming game 38-29. Utah finished the season with a 3-8 record. When the two programs collide again on Sept. 3 at "The Swamp" in Gainesville, it will be televised by ESPN and the Utes should be ranked in the national polls. No doubt, times have changed. "It's evident when you put the tape on, this team's got height, length, speed. They're tough. They play with effort. They've got a reputation and a brand that they play to. So, we've got a ton of respect for Utah. - Florida coach Billy Napier on the Utes And Utah is looking forward to this kind of test to kick off the season. The Utes are the defending Pac-12 champions and lost a heartbreaker in the Rose Bowl to Ohio State last New Year's Day.

Of course, this season opener will be a homecoming for Ute linebacker Mohamoud Diabate, who spent the previous three seasons with the Gators before transferring to Utah. "It brings emotion because those are the guys you grew up with and you had more workouts with those guys. Those are some of my closest friends. But at the end of the day, I want to destroy them," he said. "When I step on the field, they know how I am. You're my enemy now. "At the end of the day, all that stuff that we've been through, all those times we were together, that goes out the window. I'm trying to do my job and I know it's going to be the same on their end. It will come down to who prepares the best and who's ready." - Deseret News
