Pick
I’m backing the over here. The Gators’ interior defense has really taken a hit without Colin Castleton as a rim protector, and this may be a favorable matchup for Georgia to do some damage inside. On the other hand, Georgia still stinks and aren’t really a team worth backing for much of anything if we’re being completely honest. I just think we’re headed for a high-scoring game here. Give me the over.
