MISSISSIPPI +5 over Florida
The Gators are a decent team with a chance to make a deep run in this year's dance. They come into this one with a 3-1 conference mark and a 15-4 overall record. Of Florida's four losses, two were against Syracuse and Ohio State, arguably two of the top four teams in the nation. What's somewhat disturbing is that the Gators have played just five true road games this season and have managed just one win. They had lost four in a row away from home prior to beating a rather lame South Carolina club in its last road tilt. The Gators also have road losses to Tennessee and Rutgers and they're not taking a step down in class against Ole Miss. It's also worth noting that the Gators will host #16 Mississippi State on Saturday. The Rebels are coming on. They're now 3-2 in the conference and 13-6 overall. They've won two in a row and three of four. That includes an impressive won over in-state rival #16 Mississippi State. In a letdown spot after that big win, Ole Miss won on the road at Georgia. The Rebels offense is a work in progress but they've been better recently and they're an outstanding rebounding team. This is a key game in its quest to make the tournament this season and they figure to be ready. More than that however, is Florida's poor road efforts and until they prove they can win away games, we'll gladly back an ascending host like this one. Play: #546 Mississippi +6 (Risking 2.02 units to win 2).
We're also playing the following games:
Fresno St +123 over LOUISIANA TECH
Play: Fresno State +123 (Risking 2 units)
Boston College +17½ over VIRGINIA
Play: Boston College +17½ (Risking 2.14 units to win 2)
