Key Stats
Florida Gators
Florida is led in scoring by Walter Clayton Jr. this season. Clayton Jr. averages 17.3 points per game. However, Will Richard is coming off a 19-point performance against the Texas A&M Aggies. Furthermore, Zyon Pullin pitched in 15 points as well as five assists in the victory. Additionally, Tyrese Samuel provided 15 points, five assists, and six rebounds for the Florida Gators.
Auburn Tigers
Auburn is a team with championship aspirations. Johni Broome averages 16.2 points per game. However, he also leads the team in rebounds at 8.3 per game. Moreover, Tre Donaldson averages 3.2 assists per contest. However, he comes off the bench. This needs to be a big game from Broome. But if others are able to pitch in, then the Auburn Tigers will beat the Florida Gators to become SEC tournament champions.

Game Prediction
This Florida Gators offense is good enough to compete with anyone in the nation. However, their lack of defense is a concern. Especially against a good Auburn Tigers team, they will be susceptible on the other end. Therefore, the lock in this matchup is the over. Although it is a high point total, these two teams are slated to have a game in the 80s today. At least! Additionally, I am picking the Florida Gators to cover the spread against a one-man show in the Auburn Tigers.
Final Pick
Florida Gators +5.5 and Over 157
