Florida Invited To Tangerine Bowl Move Could Shift Site
The Tangerine Bowl invited Florida to face Miami of Ohio and considered moving the game from Orlando to Gainesville due to expected larger crowds. The move would be for one year only, with other bowl activities remaining in Orlando, and must be approved by the NCAA special events committee. Florida coach Dickey and officials weighed the change as Florida seeks a return to a bowl after 1969. Miami of Ohio coach Bill Mallory praised the MAC champions’ selection and their 10-0 record.
