Florida football returns home this weekend to host the Oklahoma Sooners inside Ben Hill Griffin Stadium. Ahead of Week 10's SEC matchup, BetMGM's betting odds saw a slight shift in the over/under, but otherwise, the lines have held from yesterday's numbers.
Jon Sumrall's squad is coming off an embarrassing loss to Georgia in their annual rivalry game — a defeat that sent them tumbling out of the US LMB Coaches Poll and just barely hanging on in the AP Top 25 at No. 25 — and enter the matchup with a 5-3 overall record and a 3-3 mark in SEC play. The Sooners lost to South Carolina at home in Week 9 and are voteless in both major polls with a 4-4 record (2-3 SEC).
The two schools have played only twice in their history, and never as mutual members
of the SEC. The first meeting was in the 2009 BCS Championship Game, when the Gators won 24-14; the second was the 2020 Cotton Bowl, when the Sooners won 55-20.

Gators Wire's expert predictions, picks for Florida's Week 10 game vs Oklahoma
Sumrall has a lot of work to do this week to correct some grievous issues seen in the loss to Georgia, but the one bright spot for the Orange and Blue was how well the defense played given the circumstances. There are some serious concerns at the quarterback position after Aaron Philo's poor performance and Tramell Jones Jr.'s lingering undisclosed injury.
Florida is a one-touchdown favorite on its home field to start the week and if the team plays the way it did against the likes of Ole Miss and Texas, this should be a sure win. While there are some lingering doubts, I expect the Gators to pull this one off and clinch a bowl berth in the process.
PREDICTION: Florida 24, Oklahoma 17
