There is only one word that can explain Florida’s play against Auburn, and that is domination. The Gators have won 19 of the past 20 meetings with the Tigers, including the past nine. The most impressive aspect of this one-sided conference matchup is Florida’s ability to win on the road with the program winning its past eight games at Auburn.
- Florida is 9-0 SU and ATS in its last 9 games as road favorites.
- The total has gone OVER in 7 of Auburn's last 8 games at home.
- Florida is 4-1 SU and ATS in its last 5 games with two days off between games.
Though technically being the first man off the bench, Canyon Barry has been the most important player for Florida during SEC play. The College of Charleston transfer is averaging a team-high 12.7 ppg in conference play and has made a school-record 39 consecutive free throws, thanks to adopting his legendary father’s underhanded technique. In the five games since not playing against LSU, Barry has been averaging 13.8 points and has just one turnover.
Auburn is coming off an atrocious 90-84 defeat to Ole Miss in which the Tigers allowed 63 second-half points. There is certainly optimism for the program, as the three leading scorers are all freshmen. Mustapha Heron has been particularly impressive with the guard leading the team in ppg and rpg while scoring double-digit points in every game this season.
