Prediction for Texas A&M vs. Florida
Texas A&M are currently on a three-game losing streak, and it could very well continue as they face a major road test against Florida. The Gators are 13-1 at home, while the Aggies possess a 4-4 record on the road.
The Gators are one of the most efficient teams in the nation, as they knock down 46.7% of their shots from the field. Texas A&M is a lockdown defense, allowing their opponents to 39.9% from the field.
Both teams are advantageous when it comes to offensive rebounding, as Florida averages 12.6 per game (sixth in the country), and Texas A&M leads the SEC with 13.1 offensive boards per contest.
Rebounds and defense are what the Aggies will need to rely on, as the Gators are an explosive offense, averaging 83.6 points per game (10th in the nation).
It is a nightmare matchup for Texas A&M, as Florida possesses the same strengths, but unlike the Aggies, the Gators can score consistently at will.
Frankly, Texas A&M does not match up with Florida at all. The only hope for the Aggies is that their defense travels and the rebound battle is marginally close. That is their only path to having a fighting chance in this game.

Florida, led by Walter Clayton Jr. averaging 17.1 points per game, is a versatile team that can depend on a handful of players to score in bunches. Meanwhile, Texas A&M is so reliant on Wade Taylor IV (15.3 points per game) and Zhuric Phelps (14.4 points per game).
During their three-game skid, the Aggies are averaging 69 points per game, and that number is elevated by an 84-point performance against Vanderbilt in their last outing.
At home, Florida is too much for Texas A&M to handle. The Gators’ second-chance opportunities may be limited because of Texas A&M’s ability to control the glass, but that won’t matter.
Prediction: Florida 81, Texas A&M 68
