Why Florida will cover

  • Florida has won each of its last 13 games at Exactech Arena at Stephen C. O’Connell Center against non-AP-ranked opponents.
  • Grambling State has lost each of its last five road games following a road loss.
  • Florida has won the first half in each of its last 12 games at Exactech Arena at Stephen C. O’Connell Center.

Florida vs Grambling Prediction 

Florida comes into this game ranked in the top-25 and they are looking for their third straight win to start the season. The Gators have scored 81 and 98 points in their first two wins and they are shooting over 52% from the field. Grambling almost upset Ole Miss on the road in their last game and they have played excellent defense so far this year. The Tigers are averaging 43 rebounds per game and have also shot the ball very well. I think Grambling could hang around in this game in the first 30 minutes or so, but I like Florida to pull away late. Take the Gators.
