Gambling odds according to WynnBET

  • Moneyline: Florida -140; Florida State +120

Talk about a change in the way both of these teams feel. In September, if you had guessed which coach would have been fired when these two teams faced off, there is a 0 percent chance that your pick would have been Dan Mullen.

However, the Florida Gators have moved on from Mullen, and they have gone from playing for a College Football Playoff spot in September to trying to reach a bowl game in November. They have to beat their in-state arch-rival at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium to pull that off. If they lose, Tennessee football is in a great position to cash in on UF declining.

On the other side, the Florida State Seminoles have rebounded after an 0-4 start under Mike Norvell. They have won three of five and already beat their other in-state rival, the Miami Hurricanes. Beating Florida in The Swamp to reach bowl eligibility would be one of the greatest rebounds in the history of the program.

Prediction

This is not the Florida team that beat Tennessee football. They have given up on the year. Florida State, meanwhile, is playing with a ton of momentum. As a result, FSU will pull off the upset. They actually might win comfortably as well. UF under Greg Knox is where UT was under Brady Hoke in 2017. Take FSU in an outright upset. UF won’t score enough for the game to hit the over.

Florida State: 31 Florida: 17 (Florida State +2.5; Under 58.5)
