The 1975 Florida Gators football team represented the University of Florida during the 1975 NCAA Division I football season. The season was Doug Dickey's sixth and most successful season as the head coach of the Florida Gators football team. Dickey's 1975 Florida Gators finished with a 9–3 overall record and a 5–1 Southeastern Conference (SEC) record, tying for second among ten SEC teams. The team featured consensus All-American linebacker Sammy Green.

Florida's 1975 milestone of holding all regular season opponents to 16 points or less would eventually be matched by the 2025 Ohio State Buckeyes.
