back-to-back games for just the second time this season, as it picked up a 38-20 victory over the Georgia Bulldogs as 11.5-point neutral-site underdogs last week, while going OVER the betting total for a third consecutive affair.\u00a0 The Gators finished with 418 rushing yards last week, which can\u2019t be ignored when making your Week 11 NCAA football betting picks, as that was the fifth-best single-game total in school history.\u00a0 Florida is 5-2 SU and 2-5 ATS as favorites of 10.5 to 21 points since the start of the 2012 campaign, with the OVER going 4-3 in that situation.<\/p>\n<p>The Gators own a 35-10-2 all-time advantage over the Commodores, which is important to consider when looking over the NCAA football betting lines, as it has won its last 11 trips to the Music City.\u00a0 Florida leads the Southeastern Conference and sits second nationally in red-zone efficiency\u2014converting 24-of-25 trips inside the red zone.\u00a0 The offensive line is doing a great job in protecting its quarterbacks in allowing just 11 sacks this season, while the defense is averaging 2.86 on the other end.<\/p>\n<p>Vanderbilt has alternated wins and losses over its last four contests, as it looks to build off a 42-28 victory over Old Dominion as seven-point home favorites last week\u2014capturing the statistical battle for the first time this season.\u00a0 After years of underachieving late in the season, the Commodores have notched 10 consecutive victories in the month of November, but it\u2019s important to point out that nearly all of that success came under current Penn State head coach James Franklin.\u00a0 Over the last two-plus seasons, the school is 8-0 SUATS in Weeks 10 through 13.<\/p>\n<p>The Commodores are one of the younger teams in the SEC, which is clearly evident in the fact that their leading passer, rusher, receiver and tackler are all first-year contributors.\u00a0 Vanderbilt has a major playmaker in Nigel Bowden on the defensive side of the ball, as he leads all conference freshmen in total stops.<\/p>\n<p>Sports bettors will likely back the Gators due to the road team covering the number in the last six installments of this series.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t miss out on a winning season and let the college football handicappers at Maddux Sports line your pockets with cash.\u00a0 Long term packages are available
