Florida Gators vs Missouri Tigers prediction and best bet
Florida’s offense earns the winner pick, and Missouri’s passing game makes Over 57.5 (-112) the best bet. The Gators have scored more than 40 points in all four games. Their latest victory, 52-28 over No. 4 Ole Miss, included 302 rushing yards, six rushing touchdowns and 35 second-half points. That combination gives Florida several ways to sustain scoring.
The Tigers can contribute without matching Florida’s rushing production. Austin Simmons has thrown 11 touchdowns without an interception, supported by two productive receivers and protection that has allowed four sacks. The forecast is Florida 38, Missouri 28, with medium confidence. The total offers the stronger betting case, while the spread remains a Pass.
