Florida Football: 3 bold predictions vs. Auburn in Week 6
By David Harvey
Auburn and Florida football face off in a top-10 showdown. Take a look at our bold predictions for this Week 6 SEC showdown.
Auburn comes into this week ranked No. 7 in the AP Top 25 while Florida is ranked No. 10. The two teams are looking to remain undefeated on the season with their playoff hopes intact. Florida gets the home-field advantage in this one at 3:30 p.m. ET on the CBS Network.
The Tigers have had a few impressive wins thus far. They started the season off with a victory over the trendy Oregon Ducks in the opening weekend game. In Week 3, they beat the then-17th ranked Texas A&M Aggies by eight points. Last week, they completely demolished a formidable Mississippi State team by 33 points.
Florida has looked very suspect at times this season. They got off to a rocky start against a Miami team that has since gone 1-2 and barely squeaked out a victory over Central Michigan last week.
The only other challenging matchup to date for the Gators was against Kentucky. The Wildcats had a 21-10 lead going into the fourth quarter. Florida went on a 19-0 run to win the game 29-21.
This game is expected to be one of defensive prowess with Florida ranked 17th in overall defense and Auburn ranked 33rd. Let’s get on with the bold predictions.
