The game will be nationally televised on ESPN at ‘The Swamp’ – also known as Ben Hill Griffin Stadium. Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Utah at Florida'odds, and make our expert college football picks and predictions.
The Utes and Gators have met only 1 other time in history, with the Gators claiming victory 38-29 in 1977.
The defending Pac-12 champions and preseason pick to repeat in 2022, the Utes are playing an SEC team for the first time since 2009. One of the fortunate teams in college football this year, they are bringing back just about every key player from their successful championship season last year.
They will have experience that the Gators do not and hope to use that to their advantage under head coach Kyle Whittingham.
