DL Jamari Lyons is in the end zone during warmups on a scooter with a walking boot on his left foot. Seems to be in good spirits dancing to the stadium music (Fein by Travis Scott).

The student section is starting to fill up quick. It might not look super impressive right now, but it's much more full than how it normally looks 30 minutes before kickoff. This place will be packed soon.

Sun currently covered by clouds as a significant wind blows into the press box on the west sideline. Noteworthy for a 3:45 p.m. kickoff in Gainesville.

Prior to kickoff Florida has a 57.5% chance of beating Miami according to ESPN analytics.

Here's how The Swamps filled out. Not a white out, students seemed to have taken blue seriously.

The band is lining up near the south end zone. We're just moments away from the Gators' tunnel entrance.

Damn, Jevon Kearse looks like he could still suit up today if needed.
