What Should the Spread on the Alabama vs. Florida Game be?
After Week 2, the Crimson Tide rating is 97.34, the Gators rating is 83.40. This would give us a spread of Alabama 11.5 (home field advantage factored in). This one opened Bama -13.5, so looks like a bit of an overlay here.
As backup Anthony Richardson continues to dazzle, Emory Jones will remain the starting quarterback for the Gators heading into next week's matchup vs. No. 1 Alabama, coach Dan Mullen said.
What to Watch for in the Line Movement
Interesting to note that Florida has yet to cover this season despite starting 2-0.
Bama did not cover last week. Few books offered a line on Alabama vs. Mercer however.
Florida could not cover a -24.5 spread last week but won by 21 against FAU. This number came down from 25.5 to 23.5 at Bovada. The sharp books moved the line a half point up to 23.5 from 23 the hours before gametime. We had the line at Florida -20.
