Play - Florida (Game 166).
Edges - Gators: 33-0 SU in last 33 home opening games; and new head coach Billy Napier is 4-0 SU in home openers, and 12-6 ATS as a dog, including 5-1 SUATS when taking 5 or fewer points; and 3-0 ATS last three games as a home dog, and 3-0 ATS last three games versus PAC-12 foes … Utes: 4-9 SU in one-score games the past five seasons … We seal the deal with this awesome angle from our well-oiled machine as it tells us to: ‘Play On’ any college football home team in Game One of the season who lost straight-up as a favorite of -7 or more in a bowl game last season if if they have won 15 or more of their previous 28 home games and are not favored by more than 10 points provided 4 or more games last season. That’s because these teams are 13-0 ATS in this role since 1990. With new head coach Napier looking to make a statement in his debut game, and the heat and humidity in the Swamp stifling this time of the season, we recommend a strong 3* play on Florida. Thank you and good luck as always.
