Alabama vs. Florida: Public Bettors Backing Gators
Our CBB Public Betting Information page indicates that 56% of public bettors are currently backing Florida when it comes to the spread. This information is subject to change throughout the day, however, so be sure to check the link so you’re receiving the most up-to-date public betting data.
Wrightsell’s Status is Day-to-Day
Latrell Wrightsell (concussion) is day-to-day, according to Mike Rodak of 247Sports.com. Currently, Wrightsell remains in concussion protocol because of recurring headaches. But according to Alabama’s head coach Nate Oats, his injured senior has occasionally been able to “practice and not have some headache” the next day. If such is the case again Tuesday, Wrightsell will play when he and his teammates are at Florida then.
Pullin Solid Performance in Win
Zyon Pullin posted 21 points (6-11 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), two rebounds, three assists and one steal in 37 minutes during Wednesday’s 83-74 victory over Missouri. The senior responded with 21 points while shooting an impressive 55 percent from the field after scoring just two points in their previous outing for the Gators. Pullin has been one of the team’s focal points on offense and is averaging 15 points per game on the season. Expect Pullin to remain one of the team’s primary scorers moving forward.
