After a 10-2 regular season, Michigan will be making its first trip to the Chick-Fil-A Peach Bowl to face the Florida Gators.

The Gators went 9-3 this season and finished with the No. 10 ranking in the College Football Playoff Rankings. This will be the fifth meeting between the teams, with the Wolverines winning the first four games. The game will take place Dec. 29 and will kickoff at 12 p.m. from the Mercedes Benz Stadium.

The Big Ten has played in the Peach Bowl on seven previous occasions, compiling a 2-5 record.

Florida's three losses came against Missouri, Georgia and Kentucky.

"We are honored to represent the Big Ten Conference in the Chick-Fil-A Peach Bowl,” Jim Harbaugh said in a press release. “Florida is a great football team and we look forward to the opportunity to compete against them. We are excited to have our student-athletes and fans experience the Peach Bowl during the holiday season.”

This will be Michigan's 47th all time bowl appearance, which is tied for 11th highest total all-time among FBS schools. Against SEC foes in bowl games, Michigan is 8-6.

U-M heads to the Peach Bowl looking for at least 11 wins for the 10th time in the 139-year history of the program.

Michigan has a 4-0 record all-time against the Gators. The last time these two teams faced each other, Michigan won in the 2017 season opener in Arlington, Texas, 33-17. The two teams have played in three bowl games. The Wolverines won the 2016 Buffalo Wild Wings Citrus Bowl 41-7, the 2008 Capital One Bowl 41-35 and the 2003 Outback Bowl 38-30.
