Pick Ideas

Florida plus the points, but shop the number

Consider Florida at +10 or better; be cautious below +9.5, with October 24–25 listings ranging from +9.5 to +10.5.

Small lean to the over

The over merits a modest look at 55.5: Florida averaged 39.6 points per game and Georgia 43.0 through seven games, but the lean weakens above 56.5.
