T.M. Selection: Florida Gators - ATS

1) I like the Gators to get the solid win in this game against the Green Wave on Friday, December 20th. The line looks like a trap line to take the team with the better record as a double digit underdog (currently 10 to 10.5) and I am not falling for it!

2) Tulane struggled late in the season and there is a certain negative energy within this team right now. Florida, on the other hand, finished the season strong and I love the fact the Gators faced the much tougher schedule this season in comparison with the Green Wave.

3) Tulane has lost two straight games and has given up at least 34 points in all 4 of their defeats this season. The Gators roll here as they are so strong at the defensive line and Tulane is going to struggle to run the ball here. The Green Wave offense just won't have enough punch here and Florida will have too much for Tulane to keep up in this one. The Gators have won 3 straight games and 4 of their 5 losses were to ranked teams this season and the other defeat was to a solid A & M team. Florida allowed only 16 ppg in their 7 wins and can dominate here.

T.M. Prediction: 35-14 Florida.

Line: -10
