Free Betting Pick: Florida Gators -9
The Florida Gators have dominated the Kentucky Wildcats ATS as of recent as they have covered the number in 9 of their last 12 meetings. The Kentucky Wildcats lost a ton of talent from their team who beat the Gators last season, and they just lost their starting QB to a season-ending injury which is concerning against a very good Gators defense who compiled 10 sacks against Miami. The Gators are rolling on the offensive side of the ball this season as Feleipe Franks looks like one of the most improved QBs in the SEC, and he should have a solid showing in this intense rivalry matchup. Final Score Prediction, Florida Gators win and cover ATS 31-14.
