Game Preview


 

Game Preview

 
Florida and Utah don’t usually meet, but this game has all the makings of an exciting classic. As week one kicks off the college football season in an electrifying fashion, and Utah won the Pac-12 title last season adding even greater intrigue.
 
Kyle Whittingham has built his Utes into an experienced, disciplined squad that brings their signature brand of disciplined play to The Swamp. Billy Napier is coaching his Gators team for just the second year; many play-callers will make their debuts here as Florida brings its wealth of talent. But how Florida utilizes that talent could prove crucial.
 
Cam Rising, the main quarterback for Utah who has led the Utes to consecutive conference championships, will be returning in the lineup. After starter quarterback Anthony Richardson announced for the NFL draft in December, Florida will begin the contest with another quarterback, most probably between Graham Mertz or Jack Miller. Richardson was named SEC offensive player of the week after scoring 3 touchdowns on the ground in the victory over Utah.
 
Utah’s defense could play an integral role in this matchup as well. They’re one of the top-25 units, featuring several returning starters. Florida will need to adapt their schemes accordingly in order to counter Utah’s talented players.

 
Florida and Utah will play the first match in Salt Lake City between them, and this is going to be the second match in a two-game series among the schools. Florida overcame Utah 29-26 to start the 2022 season last September at The Swamp; the match was settled by linebacker Amari Burney’s last-second interception in the end zone.
 
Note, though, that both teams have proven they can achieve when needed – Utah being capable of winning close games while Florida being capable of producing big upsets at times. Many fans have looked forward to this matchup since its initial announcement back in 2022 and Florida hopes this game provides them with an opportunity to start the season against an opponent with title aspirations.

How to read NCAAF Odds?

The way in which NCAAF Odds are read is just like when reading odds for an NFL game. The odds in college football and in all other sports in which a person can bet on work as a competition leveler for sports betting purposes, especially considering that there will always be one team that’s considered a favorite even by the slightest advantage. Odds are used under the understanding that it allows both teams to be able to have a proportionate or even equal number of bets per side.

When reading the odds, you will usually see that the favored team in the matchup will have a “-“sign next to its name while the underdog will have a “+” next to its name. What that means for a favorite team is that bettors have to bet however much the number next to the “-“says in order to make $100. For the underdogs, bettors are told by the number next to the “+” how much money they would make if they were to wager $100.

How do spreads work in College Football?

When betting on your preferred NCAAF picks, you want to make sure that you are understanding everything going on around your wagers, which is why understanding how spreads work is something pivotal for winning. When reading a point spread most of the times there will be a favorite and an underdog, that is unless the matchup is so even that a favorite cannot be named. A favorite team, which usually is posted with a negative sign next to it usually has points taken away by book makers, which ends up meaning that for this team to win and cover the spread they must win by at least the number of points previously deducted in order to cover.

For underdogs, they will have a positive sign and will either win the game outright or lose by less points than the ones added by bookmakers in order to cover. While all that might sound hard to understand and deduct, that’s where a show like BetUS TV’s “The NCAAF Show” comes into play like an MVP, giving college football fans all the right tools and of course the best NCAAF predictions to be able to win at all times.
