ITG Next welcomed hundreds of middle school and high school student-athletes and their coaches to Everbank Field in Jacksonville, Florida, on Jan. 2, 2025, as part of the annual TaxSlayer Gator Bowl Takeover.
As in past years, the student-athletes came from various schools around South Georgia and North Florida, and they were treated to a great day of football, food, and fun.
This bowl game has become one of the premier contests in college football, growing in popularity and fan attendance while hosting great teams every year.
The 80th Annual Taxslayer Gator Bowl was no exception as the Ole Miss Rebels and the Duke Blue Devils gave fans on both sides plenty to cheer about. Ole Miss jumped out to a 24-7 halftime lead. Despite a comeback attempt by Duke late in the fourth-quarter, the Rebels staved off the Blue Devils and cruised to a 52-20 victory to cap off a 10-win season for head coach Lane Kiffin’s team.
Prior to the game, the student-athletes and their coaches were provided with convenient parking, game tickets, and a meal, all at no cost to them.
Be sure to ask your school about joining the ITG Next TaxSlayer Gator Bowl Takeover next year!
