Expert Pick & Final Score Prediction

I like the Virginia Cavaliers a lot, but not enough to go along with the 48 percent of public bettors that like them to cover the spread in this matchup. Virginia is 4-1 ATS in their last five non-conference games, but the Cavs are also just 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games against a team with a winning straight up record and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games following an ATS loss. On the flip side of the coin, Florida is a perfect 4-0 ATS in their last four non-conference games, 5-1 ATS in their last six games as a favorite and a blistering 22-8 ATS in their last 30 games as a favorite. Both of these teams have outstanding defense, but Virginia really struggles to score the ball and that will be the difference in this matchup.

My final score prediction is Florida 71 Virginia 66
