==Near-total demolition==
The historic structure was almost entirely razed in 1994, as part of a massive remodeling effort which essentially built a new stadium., in preparation for the city's new NFL team, the [[Jacksonville Jaguars|Jaguars]], who would begin play in 1995. The new stadium was renamed Jacksonville Municipal Stadium (known as Alltel Stadium from 1997 through 2006, EverBank Field from August 2010 through June 2018, and [[TIAA Bank Field]] since June 2018). Almost none of the original infrastructure remains, except for the west upper deck (which was added in 1982) and the ramping system. While Jacksonville Municipal Stadium was being constructed, the Florida–Georgia game alternated between the two schools' home stadiums, with Florida's [[Ben Hill Griffin Stadium]] hosting in 1994 (which also hosted the [[1994 Gator Bowl]]) and Georgia's [[Sanford Stadium]] hosting in 1995. The game resumed the following year in Jacksonville.
