South Carolina-Florida over/under one of lowest in last decade
If you plan on taking the under for Saturday’s SEC East contest between South Carolina and Florida, you better hope for a defensive slugfest.
With a total over/under set at 37.5 — or five touchdowns and a safety — Vegas is expecting a low-scoring affair in The Swamp. That’s not too surprising, considering the two teams have struggled mightily at times this season; Florida ranks 10th in the SEC in scoring offense (27.0) and the Gamecocks enter Week 11 with the conference’s lowest point total (19.2).
The South Carolina at Florida over/under has opened at 37.5. One of the lowest college O/U’s I’ve ever seen. (Still took the under).

This specific O/U, though, is tied for the lowest total of the season and there have only been 52 that low since 2005.
@ClayTravis FWIW, it's the lowest NCAAF total since Sept 10 (BC vs UMass, O/U 37.5). Only 52 totals that low since 2005.

For the record, seven of South Carolina’s nine games this season have hit the under — the third-most in college football. Florida has hit the under in five of eight.
