Pick: Florida +7 (1u) / Florida ML (0.25u) I think Florida wins, so I would still take them at +5.5 for a 0.5 unit after giving them out at +7. I played the Gators +8 at the opening line and ML at +225 odds.
I am taking Florida to kick off its SEC season with a big home win in The Swamp as the underdog. This will be the Vols’ first real test of the season and first road game. I was a hater of Mertz at Wisconsin, but through two weeks, I like how Florida has used Mertz, especially in the first half of Week 1 against Utah before the elevation caught up to the Gators.įor Tennessee and Milton, there’s still much to be desired after beating Virginia (49-13) and Austin Peay (30-3). That is no mistake as The Swamp is a tough environment for any opponent. The line opened at Tennessee -8 and has come down in favor of Florida to +5.5. *Odds provided by BetMGM Tennessee (-5.5) at Florida: O/U 56.5 I would opt for Alabama 1H Team Total Over 27.5 (-135) or full game Team Total Over 47.5 (-115) if you missed out. This line is currently at -20.5 (-110), which I would play for 1 unit. I grabbed the Crimson Tide’s 1H -17.5 at -138 odds.
I see a similar result here, so I will lay the first-half points with Alabama. Last year USF hosted ranked BYU in Week 1 and was blown out 50-21 after trailing 28-0 in the first quarter and 38-7 by half.
