Grambling Almost Pulled Off the Upset

In the first game of the season, Grambling faced off against the SUNO Knights and they were able to secure the 92-42 victory. In the last game against Ole Miss, Grambling was just as competitive, but they ended up falling short 66-64. At halftime, Grambling was up 33-25, but in the second half the defense gave up 41 points and that led to the two-point defeat. 

As a team Grambling State shot 46.7 percent from the field and 47.4 percent from behind the three-point line. They only shot 61.9 percent from the free-throw line and they are going to need that to be a whole lot better. They also held Ole Miss to only 23.1 percent from behind the three-point line, and that led to the defeat. 

Florida’s Offense Has Impressed

The Florida offense has sure impressed the first couple of games of the season and they are going to look for strong offense again here. In the first game of the season against South Florida, the Gators scored 98 points on the way to the victory. In the last game against Jacksonville, Florida scored 81 points and they ended up winning by 21 points. 

At halftime, they were up 46-32 and they never looked back on the way to the victory. Florida shot 52.6 percent from the field and 29.2 percent from behind the three-point line. Watler Calyton Jr is averaging 19 points while shooting 60.9 percent from the field. Florida will face Florida State and Florida A&M following this one.

Grambling State vs Florida Prediction

This game is going to come down to if Grambling’s defense is going to be able to make enough stops. They slowed down Ole Miss in the last game, but I trust this Florida offense more. Top to bottom this Florida offense has more playmakers and they are going to have no issue running up the score here. Florida is going to put on a show here with the offense and they will cruise. Back Florida against the spread.
