What channel is the Florida football Orange and Blue spring game on? Time, TV

Florida football won’t be playing a real game for almost five months, but fans can get their first look at the Jon Sumrall era this Saturday. The Gators will host their annual Orange and Blue spring game Saturday in Gainesville . As some schools, such as LSU under new coach Lane Kiffin, eliminate their spring games, Sumrall is bringing a new format to The Swamp.

A touchdown will still be worth six points, a field goal three and an extra point one, but the offense can attempt a “three-point” conversion from the 5-yard line, and a “four-point" conversion from the 10-yard line. On defense, three points is scored for a three-and-out, one for a punt and six for forcing a turnover. It’s a format he’s used the last four years as head coach at Tulane and Troy.

"I look at a fourth-down stop as a takeaway, 'cause it’s a takeaway on downs," Sumrall said. "And so, the defense will have scoring. ” Even though the game will be called “Orange and Blue,” one team will wear blue and the other white.

Quarterbacks will wear orange. “We’re not gonna actually wear orange and blue because that would be ridiculously confusing for two teams being in a colored jersey,” Sumrall said.
