  "account": "The Florida Gators and Georgia Bulldogs clash in the first of a two-year border war in Atlanta, despite the higher ticket prices. The Atlanta Gridiron Classic will take place on Saturday, October 31, at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, replacing Jacksonville due to a $1.4 billion renovation for the Jaguars. Ticket prices increased from $150-200 at EverBank Stadium to $155 in the upper level and $365 in the lower bowl at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Despite the higher costs, Florida sold out its 29,071 tickets by late August, and some Falcons personal seat license holders also received tickets, with the game sold out to capacity. Secondary market tickets on StubHub range from $197 in the upper deck to $1,003 in the lower bowl. Florida fans traveling to Atlanta will face higher travel costs and the possibility of staying overnight. Georgia is favored by 11.5 points, according to BetMGM. Fresh off a 27-24 win against Texas, Florida coach Jon Sumrall acknowledges the tough road atmosphere for UF fans but sees the unique 50-50 split deal with Georgia as exciting for his team.",
