4* Free Week 3 NCAA Betting Prediction: Florida +6.5
Expect some explosive action, as Tennessee and Florida ignite the gridiron once again!
On Saturday, we’ve got a classic SEC showdown between offense and defense. Tennessee’s offense has been a bit shaky in their early games, while the Gators have shown some serious firepower on offense.
The real mystery is which coaching crew can crack the code of the opposing side. It’s a million-dollar question.
After Florida took a hit with a 24-11 loss against Utah in their season opener, they came back strong, crushing McNeese State 49-7 in the next game. It looks like they’re gaining momentum now, and Florida’s looked good on the defensive side of the ball too.
I see them as the best bet to cover the spread for this week, with the line at +6.5.
Our projections for the total have our model sitting at 63 for this one as well, pushing this to the OVER. We’ll make a small side bet as well on OVER the total Saturday.
Expect this game in the swamp to go down to the final whistle. Would you expect anything less?
