Florida - Auburn: Form Analysis

Seeing that Auburn and Florida have reached the Final Four, they are both in excellent form. The Gators have won their last 10 games in a row, with their last loss coming against the Georgia Bulldogs at the end of February.

During this stretch, Florida won the SEC tournament in dominant fashion and have cruised through the NCAA tournament up to this point.

As for Auburn, they lost some of their form at the end of the regular season, losing two straight games to close out the season. They entered the SEC tournament as the number one seed but were upset by the Tennessee Volunteers in the SEC quarterfinals.

Since that loss, the Tigers are a perfect 4-0 in the NCAA tournament and have won their tournament games by an average margin of 12.8 points per game.

Our Florida vs Auburn Prediction

It's no surprise to see two SEC teams in this year's Final Four as it has been the best overall conference this entire season. It also makes sense that those two teams are Auburn and Florida as they both have been the best SEC teams this season. 

The Tigers and Gators put once in the regular season, a 90-81 win for Florida on the road. However, this game was played in early February, and Saturday's matchup could be a much different story. 

Generally known for their scoring, Auburn has taken more of a defensive approach in the NCAA tournament. They are allowing 65.5 points in their four tournament games and no team has scored more than 70 points against them. Florida's offense on the other hand, continues to put up big numbers but they are allowing 73.5 points in their four tournament games, which has resulted in some close calls. 

These two teams match-up well against each with exceptional guard play and big men that can dominate the paint. However, because Auburn has Wooden Award Finalist Johni Broome playing at an elite level, our Florida Gators vs Auburn Tigers prediction is Auburn ML.

Florida vs Auburn - Other Interesting Picks

Johni Broome to score 20+ points

Odds -115

Our second prediction for this game will target Johni Broome from the Auburn Tigers to score 20+ points. Broome has scored 20+ points in two of the four tournament games but both of these instances came in the last two games against quality opponents.

Florida, on the other hand, has struggled to defend forwards/centers in their recent games, allowing Maryland's center to score 27 points in the Sweet 16 and Texas Tech's top two forwards to score a combined 43 points in the Elite 8.

Broome is also widely considered to be the second-best player in the country (behind Duke's Cooper Flagg); therefore, our second Florida Gators vs Auburn Tigers predictionis Johni Broome to score 20+ points.
