Florida vs Utah Game Details
Thursday 31st August⏱ 8pm ET ESPN Rice-Eccles Stadium, UtahUtah finished 16th in terms of total points scored in the first half last season, putting up an average of just over 18 in the first period.
That is largely the basis of our first parlay pick, but the bottom line is the Utes head into this match-up boasting much better credentials. Yes, Florida did snatch a three-point win over them in the last meeting, but that appeared somewhat of a momentary blip for Utah who would go on to register a 10-3 winning season and a Rose Bowl appearance.
There are question marks over whether quarterback Cam Rising is fit to start, but he is listed as first on the depth chart and his 2022 numbers – 3,000-plus yards and 26 touchdowns – blow the Gators’ newest recruit Graham Mertz out the water.
Add to that the fact the Utes have won 25 of its last 26 home games, including 14 in a row and are 12-1 in season openers in Salt Lake under Whittingham – there is little room for a Florida win in our eyes.
We are tipping them to cover the spread here.
