Our Florida vs UCONN Prediction
Florida being a near double-digit favorite makes this line fishy. While the Gators have dominated for large parts of the season, they are still playing UConn, the two-time defending National Champions. With that, we will simply look for Florida to go over their team total.
The Gators are averaging 85.7 points per game, which ranks 7th in the country. They have only picked up their scoring recently, averaging 94 points over their last 5 games. Additionally, the Gators are coming off a first-round game where they scored 95 points. While UConn’s defense will be much better than Norfolk State’s, Florida simply scores at a lightning pace. Because of the efficiency with which Florida operates their offense, our UConn Huskies vs Florida Gators prediction is Florida alternate team total over 79.5 points.All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
