Auburn vs Florida Preview & Picks

Florida are tipped to cover a small spread as they reach the National Championship Game.

The in-form Gators shoot the three-ball better than most and already boast a regular season win at Auburn.

With Tigers star Johni Broome not at 100%, we expect the same outcome as February's meeting.

  • Florida are 16-1 in their previous 17 games
  • Florida beat Auburn by 9 points when the two teams met on February 8
  • Auburn are 3-5-0 ATS in their previous 8 games
  • Florida are 6-2-0 ATS in the last 8 meetings with Auburn
  • The Over has cashed in each of Florida’s last 11 games

Head To Head

  • Auburn lead the all-time series 90-84
  • Florida won 90-81 when the two teams last met on February 8

Auburn Form

Auburn enter the Final Four having rebounded from their SEC tournament disappointment with this run in the national competition.

The Tigers dropped their final two regular season games to finish with a 27-4 record, but rebounded in the opening game of the conference tournament.

They beat Mississippi 62-57 to kick off their campaign, only to crash out in the next round as they were beaten 70-65 by Tennessee.

Auburn issued an immediate response in the opening two rounds of March Madness, recording a couple of blowout wins as they downed Alabama State 83-62 and Creighton 82-70.

The Tigers then took down Michigan, 78-65 in the Sweet 16, before advancing from the Elite Eight with a 70-64 win over Michigan State.

Florida Form

Florida go into this Final Four matchup in fantastic form, having won 16 of their last 17 games and each of the last 10.

The Gators wrapped up the regular season on a three-game win streak, and kept that run going as they claimed the SEC tournament crown.

They beat Missouri 95-81 and Alabama 104-82 to reach the final, where they beat Tennessee 86-77.

Florida then kicked off their March Madness campaign with a 95-69 blowout of Norfolk State, before battling past UConn, 77-75.

The Gators then beat Maryland 87-71 in the Sweet 16, before taking down Texas Tech in the Elite Eight, 84-79.

Verdict

Florida have been on a tear over the past couple of months – a run that includes a road win over Auburn.

Momentum is firmly on their side and with Auburn star Broome clearly playing hurt, we expect the Gators to advance to the final.
