They're scheduled to play LSU this Saturday.
Coach Dan Mullen is on the record stating he wants 90,000 fans in the stands.
After Florida was upset at Texas A&M this weekend, Mullen said: "I know our governor passed that rule, so certainly, hopefully, the UF administration decides to let us pack The Swamp against LSU -- 100% -- because that crowd was certainly a factor in the game."
Mullen was given an opportunity to back down a few minutes later. Instead, he stood by his comments.
"Absolutely want to see 90,000 in The Swamp," he said. "I don't think the section behind our bench, I didn't see an empty seat. It was packed. The student section, there must have been 50,000 behind our bench going crazy. Hopefully that creates a home-field advantage for us next week because now we passed a law in our state that we can do that. We want our students out there cheering us on to give us that home-field advantage.''
