Matchup Analysis
Neutral floor, not a true road game
Although listed as FLA away and MIA home, the game is at Tampa’s Benchmark International Arena, so Miami does not have its usual home-court edge.
SourceFlorida brings substantial continuity
Florida returns 81.8% of its scoring from last season, with Alex Condon, Thomas Haugh, Rueben Chinyelu and Boogie Fland among the returning core.
SourceMiami’s added options could shape its rotation
Miami has Acaden Lewis, Shelton Henderson and Dante Allen among its current group, while Jai Lucas said the team is still low on numbers in practice; how quickly the new-look rotation settles against Florida is an early storyline.
SourceReneau’s role in Miami’s new style
Jai Lucas said Miami’s style will look different this season, though Malik Reneau will remain effective within it.
SourceFlorida’s backcourt faces an early fit test

SourcePick Ideas
Florida -4.5, if that number is available
Florida is a short favorite, with one projection putting the Gators about five points ahead, but Todd Golden said the bench was not good enough; avoid laying worse than -4.5.
Under 161.5 points
Despite Jai Lucas’s stated desire to play with more speed and pace, a 157-point projection remains below 161.5, making the under a modest lean.
