Tennessee vs Florida Prediction
Tennessee is struggling to head into this game, and I don’t trust the defense here. The Gators are averaging 85.2 points per game, and they are going to have no issue running up the score here. Tennessee is averaging 75 points per game, but their offense isn’t going to even reach this number. Kentucky is going to get out to a fast start, and they will cruise here. Back Florida against the spread.
