These are evenly matched teams. Both will come in and try to establish control of the line of scrimmage and put their QB in manageable passing situations. The better defense belongs to the Florida Gators, and they've also shown the ability to strike quick in the passing game with WR Antonio Callaway. Florida should have more fans as the game is in Florida. Also, the Gators played the 3 best defenses in the nation in their last 3 games. Now rested and playing in the warm weather I expect them to come out firing.

Lastly, things haven't been kind to the Big Ten in bowl season with Ohio State and Michigan coming up short as favorites in their contests recently.
