Hold up, wait a minute! Florida head coach Jon Sumrall just dropped a bombshell about his team being favored against No. 4 Ole Miss, and he did it with a wild joke that has everyone talking. He seriously did not expect the Gators to be picking up points against a top-five team.
Sumrall’s Wild Take on the Odds
You heard it right, the oddsmakers at FanDuel Sportsbook have Florida as a 2.5-point favorite. But when reporters told Sumrall about the favored status on Monday, his reaction was priceless. “There’s a lot of good drugs out there,” he reportedly told them. That’s a coach basically saying, “Are you kidding me?!” He literally didn’t even know his team was favored.
Why the Coach Thinks Everyone’s Trippin’
Sumrall didn’t pull any punches, either. He flat out said, “whoever is doing that, I don’t know, they haven’t watched the tape.” He knows what he’s up against, raving about Ole Miss. They’ve “got the best quarterback in college football, I think. He’s a dude,” Sumrall said. Plus, they’ve “got a lot of great weapons.” From his perspective, the Gators have “a lot to work on.”
So, as Florida gets ready for their upcoming game against No. 4 Ole Miss, all eyes are on whether Sumrall’s pre-game assessment is right, or if the oddsmakers are actually onto something.
