Florida vs Alabama
(NCAAB) Gators (FLA) vs. Crimson Tide (ALA),
Point Spread: 3.50 | -110.00 Gators (FLA) (Away)
Result: Win
Nobody scores the rock like Alabama. Literally. They are number one in scoring offense in the country. Their Achilles heel all season has been their lack of defense. They are 339th in the country in scoring defense and give up 80.1 ppg in SEC games. But when you look closer, you see these teams have almost identical numbers in FG percentage and three-point percentage. Because they don’t play defense, the Crimson Tide gets in trouble when they play a team that can shoot as well as them and plays much better defense, and that’s exactly what they’re facing with this Gators team that has won and covered 7 of their last 8, including a nine-point win at Auburn, the Tigers only conference loss of the season.
