  • Nine of Florida’s last 11 games against Conference opponents have produced a total of 158+ points.

Oklahoma vs Florida Prediction

I’m on Florida here. I just don’t think that Oklahoma is as good as their record would indicate, and that all 11-5 teams aren’t created equal, in my opinion. Furthermore, I think this is just too much size, talent, and length for Oklahoma to deal with. While Florida hasn’t had the strongest of showings so far this year, I think they’ll be good enough for the win and cover here.
