Sport: College FootballPick Selection: ALA and FLA under
Take the Under in Alabama-Florida at 3:30 ET. Florida's defense is one of the best in the country, allowing just 8.5 ppg and 229.2 ypg this year. With the help of bruisers like LB Brandon Siler, Florida has held the opposition to just 42 rush yards per game. That's going to make it tough for first-year QB starter John Parker Wilson of Alabama, who hands off to RB Kenneth Darby - who has gained just 3 ypc this season. But don't think Florida QB Chris Leak has it easy because of his experience, as he's got to go against Joe Kines' excellent defense. Kines' D held the Gators to just 3 pts in 2005, and this season is holding the opposition to 14.5 ppg. Tack on that Alabama is 10-2 under against teams with winning records in the last three seasons and under in 18 of 25 the last three seasons. Florida is under in 12 of 16 at home the last two seasons. Under is the strong play here.
