Florida -24 Arkansas
For a variety of reasons I just don't see Florida coving that spread: (1) they could have a letdown after all the hype of their big game last week at LSU, and many were saying that was the only hurdle for the Gators until the SEC Championship Game, (2) Arkansas can score, they've put up 41 or more in 4 of their 5 games this year, (3) Urban Meyer put in a very conservative game plan last week in response to Tebow coming back from a concussion and they have been much more of a run-first, control the clock offense than they were last year, I doubt that will change this week.
Given all the above, this has the makings of a trap game and reminds me a lot of the situation coming into the Gators game against Mississippi last year (a game the Gators lost at home). I don't think the Gators lose this one, but I can see it being fairly close, something like 30-17.
