Florida Gators Odds

Florida Gators Football

The Florida Gators football team heads into the 2024 season hoping to register their first winning campaign in four years. The Gators are coming off a 5-7 record in head coach Billy Napier’s second season, as they weren’t bowl eligible for the first time since 2017.

Florida will bookend the season with clashes against in-state rivals Miami and Florida State. The Gators also have a difficult slate in the ultra-competitive SEC, with matchups vs. Georgia, Tennessee, and LSU.

Key returning players include quarterback Graham Mertz, wide receiver Eugene Wilson III, and running back Montrell Johnson.

Florida Gators Point Spreads

"Covering the spread" is a reference to a spread bet, which is a bet on how much a team will win the game by.

Here’s how a Gators spread might look:

• Florida +9.5 (-110)
• Georgia -9.5 (-110)

If the Gators win 24-21, they’re winners ATS, since they need to win or lose by at least 10 points to cash spread tickets. Georgia, on the other hand, can cover with a win of nine or more points.

Florida Gators Over/Unders

Over/unders are wagers that pertain to the combined scoring outcome of a game.

Oddsmakers set the total at how many points they think will be scored, so it could be 47 for a game against Kentucky, for example. If you took the under, a 24-21 final means your bet pays off no matter who wins the game. If you bet over, you’d need there to be at least 48 points scored between the two teams. Ties on the bet are possible, and they result in refunds.

Florida Gators Moneylines

Moneyline odds take into account how likely a team is to win the game and adjust payouts accordingly, a winning record doesn’t always mean a profit.

Florida defeating Texas A&M as a -300 favorite is fine, but a $30 bet pays out just $10. If you’re able to catch the Gators as a +300 underdog, though, a $10 bet on them profits $30. These bets are simplest to understand with $10 or $100 as a unit, but the math is the same regardless.

Florida Gators Props

Player props are bets on the stats put up by a player for a single game. For example, you could bet on passing stats from Mertz or rushing figures from Johnson.

Florida Gators Futures

Florida is flying a little under the radar thanks to its recent woes and sharing the SEC with Alabama, Georgia, and newcomer Texas. Yet, if you think they’re going to win the conference, you can put your money down on a futures bet.

Futures are wagers that settle at the end of the season, and besides odds to win the conference, popular futures bets include players' odds to win certain end-of-season awards or over/unders on team wins throughout the year.
