This year’s rivalry matchup between Florida and Georgia comes two days after Halloween, so of course some spooky teasers were going to pop up this week.
That includes the one released by the Gators on Thursday. Florida tweeted a clip from the horror movie “The Shining.” However, there was one big twist — Albert E. Gator made an appearance to frighten a Bulldogs fan.
It’s a clever take on a clip from the horror classic to get the rivalry talk going this week. Watch the clip below:
Some say this alternate version of #TheShining is more terrifying than the original. Not us, though. (Turn your ? on.) #GoGators #HappyHalloween #BeatGeorgia pic.twitter.com/zq3Sqx7JI0

This year’s rivalry matchup between Florida and Georgia has huge SEC implications. The winner will be in first place in the SEC East and be in control of its own destiny the rest of the regular season. And based on both teams’ remaining schedules, it’s likely the winner will be playing in the SEC championship game in December.
No. 6 Florida and No. 8 Georgia kick off on Saturday at 3:30 p.m. ET on CBS.
