Why Florida Will Win

Can the Gators get the offense cranked up?

It’s been relatively simple for this team. Get to 72 points and win – it’s 10-0 when they score that many or more, and 0-5 when they don’t.

Arkansas has allowed 72 or more 12 times in the last 16 games.

The Hogs get into shootouts, Florida is the best team in the SEC from three, and this should be played into the mid-70s into the 80s as both teams go up and down the court in a hurry. However …

Why Arkansas Will Win

Florida doesn’t shoot a lot from the outside. It makes them when it shoots them, but it just doesn’t shoot them.

The biggest problem for the Gators will be on the boards – they don’t grab rebounds, and Arkansas is the best in the SEC at hitting the glass.

Florida might score a whole lot of points, but they don’t move the ball around well enough to get the big basket in the key spots, they’re not all that great at coming up with offensive rebounds, and Arkansas is just better at scoring. If this gets frenetic at all, the Hogs are better at playing that type of game, but …

What’s Going To Happen

Again, for whatever reason, 72 is a magical number for Florida.

Arkansas is fantastic at home, Florida has been a bit inconsistent, and … it’s going to be a high-scoring shootout.

Every streak has to come to an end at some point, but if you like not breaking something that works, then like the Gators to pull this off. Either way, it’s going to be one of the most fun games of the night.

Why Arkansas Will Win

Turnover margin, turnover margin, turnover margin.

What’s been the biggest overall difference this year for the Hogs? They’re better coached, the offense is working, and the defense has been among the best in the SEC against the pass, but it’s been the turnover margin that’s helped the cause the most.

The program is -20 in turnover margin combined over the last four years, and this year’s its +8 so far. In the three wins, the Hogs are +9 with 13 takeaways. In the three losses, they’re -1 with no takeaways in the last two defeats. Florida doesn’t have big problems with turnovers, but it’s given it up at least once in every game with a pick six last week against Georgia.

Arkansas has only allowed 300 passing yards once this year – in a win over Mississippi State – and has 12 picks, but …

CFN College Football Experts Picks

Why Florida Will Win

Kyle Trask is putting up 2019 Joe Burrow-like numbers after five games, and is now the first SEC quarterback ever to throw four touchdown passes in five straight games. On fire, the passing game has been dominant, averaging 369 yards per game with 22 touchdowns and three picks from No. 11.

The defense has stepped it up a bit, too, after having major problems against Ole Miss and Texas A&M in the first part of the season. The run D stuffed Missouri and Georgia – after one big early run – over the last two weeks, and the offense has been too good and too efficient for anyone other than A&M to keep up.

The Arkansas offense has been solid, but it doesn’t have the firepower to keep up. But …

CFN Experts Picks: NFL

What’s Going To Happen

Arkansas head coach Sam Pittman not being around as he recovers from COVID matters, but this is the Feleipe Franks game.

The former Florida quarterback returns, and while the Hog starter might not be playing as well as Trask, he’s been outstanding – hitting 67% of his passes with 14 touchdowns and three picks, with two of those coming in the opener against Georgia.

He’ll be good, and the Arkansas defense will be good enough keep this closer than the Gators might like. That was a BRUTAL game against Georgia last week, and it’s going to show – Florida will look sluggish compared to an energized Arkansas.

But the Gator passing game will come through as the game goes on, a few big scoring throws from Trask will ease the tension, and the Arkansas pattern of L-W-L-W-L-W will continue.
