Georgia at Florida

The Florida Gators have moved up to #7 in the country as they take on SEC rival Georgia. The Bulldogs were getting out and running a lot more earlier in the season. But, now that the competition has gotten very strong, they have been trying to compensate for the lack of comparable talent and depth with defense, and half-court sets. Their last three games have seen 57, 55, and 51 points scored in the first half in an attempt to stay competitive. Against a strong Florida team, I expect the emphasis to remain the same. Florida is strong on the defensive end, limiting opponents to less than 40% shooting. While this game stays somewhat competitive early, I expect a slow pace, so play the first half UNDER the total.
