Florida was coming in as a steady -2.5 favorite facing off against Auburn in Saturday's Final Four matchup.  Action was mostly balanced.

Before You Bet

• Johni Broome came back and dominated the first half against Michigan State in the Elite Eight. In fact, he posted a double-double in the first half in his last two games, despite seeing double teams for most of the action. Since he's not 100% (and people can notice this), I think that's almost swung the value in the market towards Auburn for me. The Tigers can win this game despite the injury issues. - The Action Network

• The public seems to have forgotten how dominant Auburn was this season, winning the most difficult conference in the regular season.  Auburn has the best true post player in this game and four other scoring guards who can match up with the Florida perimeter players. Broome should continue his dominant play, he just put up 25 points and 14 boards against Michigan State, and will have a similar showing here. - Winners and Whiners
