At the onset of the season the Auburn Tigers were derided as a pretender with the College football betting lines. Head coach Gus Malzahn was said to be coaching for his job. And the quarterback situation was unsettled. However, Malzahn has gone back to calling plays and is offering excellent guidance to true freshman quarterback Bo Nix. The Florida Gators are not getting as much credit as Auburn but are also undefeated. Head coach Dan Mullen is one of the best in the country and is leveraging a strong defense to cover for an inconsistent offense.

Auburn Tigers vs. Florida Gators Betting Analysis
This NCAA Football game opened as a pick but the public quickly bet Auburn up to a 3-point chalks. Much of that is based on the last two weeks in which they won at the Texas A&M Aggies and last week at home against the Mississippi State Bulldogs. The question is if this line move is an overreaction that is not taking Florida’s ability into account.
Auburn Tigers Current Form
Auburn is 5-0 straight up and against the spread with three of their games going over the total. Last week War Eagle demolished Mississippi State 56-23 as 7.5-point home chalks. Auburn ranks a much improved 24th for scoring offense and boasts a good defense that ranks 22nd for points allowed. Bo Nix has proven to be a quick study at quarterback with plenty of upside.
Florida Gators Current Form
Florida is 5-0 straight up, 2-3 against the spread, and 1-4 under the total. Florida continues to struggle on offense with a national ranking of 43rd for scoring. However, the Gators defense ranks a stout fifth for points allowed. Last week Florida beat 1-AA Towson 38-0.
