Texas A&M vs Florida Prediction
Texas A&M looks like one of the most balanced teams in the country, with an above-average offense and a defense that gets after the quarterback. The line feels accurate. However, Florida is better than its record, and that includes outplaying LSU on the road. Florida gets after it defensively and has a quarterback with the goods when he’s not turning the ball over.
Florida has covered 7 of its last 10 games as an underdog, and has covered 9 of its last 16 games when an underdog of 7 or more points. Texas A&M is 2-8 ATS in its last 10 games as a favorite of 7 or more points. Give me the points with the Gators.
