Florida at Tennessee Preview & Picks

Tennessee are tipped to covert the spread as they return to winning ways.

The Volunteers offense had an ‘off-day’ in Arkansas, but we expect that unit to bounce back here and compliment this stingy Vols defense.

  • Tennessee are 4-1-0 ATS in their last 5 games
  • Tennessee are 13-4-0 in their previous 17 home games
  • Florida are 3-7-0 ATS in their last 10 games
  • The Under has cashed in Tennessee’s last 2 games

Head To Head

  • Florida lead the all-time series 32-21
  • Florida won 29-16 when the two teams last met in September 2023

Florida Form

Florida head to Tennessee having kick-started their season with back-to-back wins to improve to 3-2.

The Gators opened up the 2024 campaign at home to Miami and suffered a 41-17 blowout defeat at the hands of the Hurricanes.

They bounced back a week later with a 45-7 win over Samford, but quickly fell back to losing ways as they were beaten 33-20 at home by Texas A&M in their conference opener.

Florida rebounded a week later to register their first SEC success of the season, beating Mississippi State 45-28 on the road.

The Gators then returned home last weekend to make it back-to-back wins by downing UCF, 24-13.

Tennessee Form

Tennessee return home looking to bounce back from a shock first defeat of the season that has left them 4-1.

The Volunteers raced out of the blocks with three non-conference wins that saw them pile up the points in a series of blowout victories.

They beat Chattanooga 69-3 at home, before hanging 51 points on NC State in a 51-10 success at the Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte.

Tennessee returned home after that to shut out Kent State in a 71-0 victory, before heading to Oklahoma to beat the ranked Sooners, 25-15.

The Volunteers failed to make it to 5-0 however, as they suffered a surprise 19-14 defeat in Arkansas last weekend.
