The Gators and the Seminoles both come into this one with perfect 3-0 marks to start the season, but neither team has faced a serious challenge yet. Florida State won 25 games a year ago, but must replace Tony Douglass and that won't be easy. The Noles have a solid front court, but lack experience in depth in the backcourt. That experience is needed the most on the road and early on. With this being the first road test, it will be a challenge against good competition. The Gators have lost six players early to pro contracts over the last three years, but have some talent returning and they will also get Georgetown transfer Vernon Macklin. Kenny Boynton, the highly touted freshman guard, is where the Gators will have the edge as he is already at 19 points per game and Macklin has provided double-digits as well. I'll go with Florida on the moneyline here.
