Tulane will be without its starting QB, although it won't matter much. They run the ball 64% of the time. Florida has its primary contributors playing today, so the portal losses aren't that big of an issue for them. Florida runs the ball 58% of the time, so this should be a game that is going to look like old school Big 10 - at least schematically.
Looking at how both defensed the run this year, it is a mixed bag. Tulane gave up an average of almost 140 rushing yards per game, 4.4 yards per carry compared to Florida's 156 RYPG, 3.9 per carry. Florida did give up significantly more yards against the pass, but new QB Ty Thompson has not shown the ability to be a significant passing threat.
Both teams will be motivated to win today, but considering the quality of opponents both teams played this year, Florida is much more tested and they have a lot of momentum heading into this game. Tulane was upset its final two games of the year and did not look very good.
Florida -10.5
