No. 4 Florida at No. 20 Florida State (Plus 16.5)

Florida (10-1) leads the series 31-19-2, but is 1-3-1 when facing Florida State (8-3) in Tallahassee the week before playing in the SEC championship game. However, the Gators have not lost to Florida State since Urban Meyer has been head coach.

The Gators lead the nation with a plus-18 turnover margin and the defense is holding opponents to 12 points per game. With a stifling defense and explosive offense Florida should win its fifth straight game against the Seminoles.
