Betting Odds
Point Spread: Gators -5.5/Tigers +5.5
Total Line: 40
There’s little wonder that Florida are favorites to win this week, considering they’ve won their first five games in outstanding fashion. Last week they picked off the Ole Miss Rebels to claim a 38-10 victory over them in a game which saw the Gators halt any kind of advance from their opponents until the second half. Quarterback, Will Grier was certainly on fine form during the match, throwing four touchdown passes, all of which came in the first half. Despite the fact that Florida’s team were experiencing a stomach virus during the week, Grier and co. overcame any troubles and secured the win.
Grieg has played a tremendous season so far, claiming 996 yards from 86 completed passes as well as 10 touchdowns. The team’s offensive line up has proved their worth as a whole, with Kelvin Taylor carrying 86 for 339 yards and both Grier and Jordan Cronkrite carrying 43 between them for 106 and 95 yards, respectively. Both have also claimed two touchdowns this season so far. Kickers, Austin Hardin and Jorge Powell have increased the Gators’ points by 19 between them.
However, Missouri aren’t lacking in the records department. They’ve secured four victories out of five matches for themselves, only losing to Kentucky in week four. Last week saw them defeat the South Carolina Gamecocks in a 24-10 finish, with freshman Drew Lock positioned as starting quarterback in place of Maty Mauk, who had been suspended last Tuesday. Lock completed 21 of 28 passes for 136 yards and two touchdowns. The Tigers also gained a season-high 163 rushing yards on 42 attempts, with contributions from Ish Witter and Russell Hansbrough.
As it stands, Mauk and Lock have proved to be prime quarterbacks, although the former has only completed 57 of his 110 attempts this season so far. He has, however, claimed six passing touchdowns and 36 carries for 145 yards, while Lock has recorded three passing touchdowns and 36 completed passes of 53 attempts. Official stats also show that Nate Brown has been on the receiving end of 17 passes for 192 yards, with four touchdowns to his name, as well.

That was an impressive and shocking win by the Gators over at the time undefeated Ole Miss getting the money as a 7-point home dog in a 38-10 spanking. In betting sports and especially football, a team is never as good as they looked the previous week, so we believe that this line is an over-reaction to Florida’s true ability. Missouri has one loss on the season and that came at Kentucky 21-13 in a very tight game. They’ve won all their home games and for them to be an underdog of over a field goal screams value to us. They do have some injuries on the OL so don’t unload on this until you check their game status.
