Despite being undefeated so far this season, the Tennessee Volunteers have yet to live up to the high expectations many had for the club before the season started. In order to prove themselves, the Volunteers will need to defeat the Florida Gators on Saturday – a feat they have not accomplished since September 2004.
- The OVER is 5-1 in the past six games between Florida and Tennessee.
- Florida is 10-4 ATS in its last 14 games against teams with winning records.
- Tennessee is 6-0 SU in its last six games at home.
There may be more responsibility on quarterback Joshua Dobbs, as Tennessee lost Cameron Sutton and Jalen Reeves-Maybin on defense during its underwhelming win over Ohio last week. Dobbs is far from the Heisman form many expected from him this season, as he is averaging just 162 passing yards and 53.7 yards on the ground.
Florida has looked fantastic so far this season by going 3-0 while outscoring opponents 101-14. However, they will be without starting quarterback Luke Del Rio, who injured his knee last week. Purdue transfer Austin Appleby will likely get the start for Florida after closing out the game last Saturday.
