Florida has really only had one close call this season; they’ve been playing well so far. The Gators have notched wins over Elon, Florida State, Milwaukee, California, Ohio State (71-68) and Troy in their first six. 

In the Troy game, Florida blew away the Trojans with a 49-20 first-half edge in an 84-45 blowout win. The Gators had six players in double-figure scoring, including Myreon Jones with 12 points, four assists and three rebounds. 

Over on the Sooners’ side, they beat Northwest State, UTSA, East Carolina and Indiana State before their first loss of the season to Utah State. Since then it’s been a pair of wins over Houston Baptist and UCF for Oklahoma. 

In the UCF matchup, Oklahoma was outscored 38-37 in the second half but still held on for the tense 65-62 victory. The Sooners’ Umoja Gibson topped the team with his 13 points, two rebounds and two assists in 27 minutes of work. 

Oklahoma is 2-7 ATS in their last nine at home and 0-5 ATS in their last five Wednesday games. The Sooners are 4-12 ATS in their last 16 games overall. 

Meanwhile, the Gators are 4-0 ATS in the last four after an ATS win and 5-0 ATS in their last five overall. Florida is 4-0 ATS in their last four as a favorite. 

PICK: I’m going to stay with Florida. The Gators drilled Troy in their last outing, shooting 44.3 percent from the field with 17-of-19 on free throws, 40 rebounds and 14 team assists. Florida has had just the one tight game so far (71-68 against Ohio State) and they’re playing well against all comers. 

As for Oklahoma, they had to work to get past a tricky UCF team but ultimately shot a nice 54.5 percent from the field. The Sooners will likely be able to keep Florida on their toes in this one, but I think the Gators can pull off a cover.
