Florida vs Texas A&M Prediction and Best Bet
The Aggies entered this season ranked No. 6 in the country, but a dismal 1-4 start to conference play leaves them searching for answers. The good news is that they have a chance to bounce back at home on Saturday. After all, Texas A&M is 3-1 straight up in its last four meetings against Florida.
The Gators have had all sorts of trouble on the defensive side of the ball. They are giving up the third-most points (29.9) and third-most yards (445.0) in SEC conference play. It gets even worse when looking at Florida's rush defense. Florida is allowing 204.9 rushing yards per game (No. 116 in FBS).
That bodes well for a Texas A&M offense that has the talent to move the chains on the ground. Running back Devon Achane has logged 765 rushing yards and 4 touchdowns on 142 carries (5.4-yard average). The 21-year-old is fresh off a game in which he posted 138 yards on 25 carries, too.
Overall, Texas A&M is 14-3 straight up in its last 17 home games, while Florida is 4-11 against the spread (ATS) in its last 15 games. I'll side with the Aggies -3 (-110) and back over 54.5 points to be scored. The over has cashed in seven of the Gators' last eight games against an SEC West opponent.
