Under-the-radar Colorado finished third in the Pac-12 regular season standings, then knocked off Boise State to get here, 60-53, two days ago. Colorado was third in the 12-team conference in scoring (78.74 per game) and points allowed (70.66 per contest). They were also No. 1 from the free throw line (.781), in field goal shooting (.492), and from long range (.391), while the defense was sixth in shooting allowed and No. 1 at defending the 3-pointer (.313). Colorado is on an 8-1 SU, 6-3 ATS run, plus 41-22 UNDER the total away from home after covering three of four, and 54-32 UNDER on the road after allowing 60 points or fewer in the last game. Florida is on a 3-6 spread run after losing badly to Auburn in the SEC tournament, 86-67. The defense was 11th in the 14-team SEC in points surrendered (78.5 per game), while the offense was 11th from the charity stripe. Coach Todd Golden is 9-21 ATS away from home in non-conference action. With Colorado 144-111 UNDER the total on the road versus winning teams and 20-8 UNDER against opponents who surrender 77+ points per game, back the dog in a defensive duel. Play Colorado + UNDER the total.
