Oklahoma are tipped to cover as a betting underdog in ‘The Swamp’.

Florida’s early-season optimism has evaporated as the offense has stalled in recent weeks, and their sloppiness with the football is something an opportunistic Sooners secondary can take advantage of.

Key Numbers – Can Sooners Register Another Underdog Cover?

Oklahoma covered in their previous game as a single digit underdog

All-Time Head-To-Head Tied; Oklahoma Won Last Meeting

Oklahoma 4-4 Thanks To Inconsistent Form

Oklahoma head to Florida with a 4-4 record, having traded wins and losses all season long.

The Sooners opened with a 51-0 shutout of UTEP, only to then lose 17-10 when they visited Michigan a week later.

They rebounded with an underwhelming 14-6 win over New Mexico, before responding to a 41-13 blowout loss at Georgia with a 27-24 upset of Texas in the ‘Red River Rivalry’ game.

Oklahoma again failed to build on a victory though, as they were brought back down to Earth by a 21-13 loss to Kentucky.

The Sooners bounced back with a 23-16 win at Mississippi State, only to then lose 42-24 when they hosted South Carolina last time out.

Florida Have Lost Three Of Previous Four

Florida return home on the back of their third defeat in four games, which has dropped them to 5-3.

The Gators opened the season with a couple of non-conference blowouts, beating Florida Atlantic 66-21 and Campbell 52-3.

They then kicked off their SEC slate by following up a 44-39 victory in Auburn with a 52-28 upset of top-five Ole Miss.

Florida suffered a letdown the following week though, as they fell 45-17 in Missouri, and a week later they suffered a 38-19 defeat at home to South Carolina.

The Gators avoided a third-straight loss, upsetting Texas 27-24 on the road, only to return to losing ways last weekend as they were beaten 27-8 by Georgia.

Verdict

Oklahoma @ Florida

Both teams have good wins, but both teams have flaws and some bad losses.

Florida’s offense has stalled in recent weeks, so it is tough to see them pulling away from the Sooners on the scoreboard. Take the underdogs and the points.
