Among the season's highlights were the Gators' conference victories over the NC State Wolfpack (27–0), Auburn Tigers (7–0), Clemson Tigers (27–0), and Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets (55–7)—their first win in seven tries against the Yellow Jackets. Also notable was an intersectional victory over the Chicago Maroons (19–0) on Chicago's home field. It was also the first season the Gators played their home games at Florida Field, which was christened with a 20–0 thumping of the Gators by coach Wallace Wade's national champion Alabama Crimson Tide in front of a homecoming crowd of some 18,000 fans.
