(NCAAF) East Carolina vs. Florida,
Point Spread: -7.00 | -110.00 Florida (Home)
Result: Win
This is an 8* BLOWOUT on Florida.

Some times a favorite is a favorite for a reason and because of its overall depth, I think that Florida should in fact be a much larger one. Will Muschamp won't be guiding the Gators today, but I think Florida has something to prove. Florida's defense will be tested today as the Pirates rank fifth in the FBS with 532.8 yards per game and are tied for 14th with an average of 37.2 points: "Our guys know the challenge we have ahead of us," said replacement head coach Durkin earlier in the week. "Everyone keeps mentioning all the stats and numbers, which are very impressive and eye opening. The most important thing to me, when you turn on the film, is that they have a group of guys who play the game the right way." The Gators defense is stout, it held opponents to a 21.2 points per game average, while ranking ninth in the FBS with 311.0 yards allowed per game and sixth with 5.7 yards allowed per touch. The Gators struggled on the offensive side of the ball, but outside the ultra-competitive SEC, Florida would manage 542.5 yards of offense in blowout wins over Eastern Michigan and Eastern Kentucky. There's no question that the Gators catch a break as well today facing the Pirates porous secondary which is clearly the weakness of the team. I think FLORIDA's defense will make the necessary adjustments as the game wears on and that the Gators will also dominate the war in the trenches.
