Florida coach Jon Sumrall expressed disbelief Monday when told his Gators are favored by 3.5 points against No. 4 Ole Miss in Saturday's matchup in the Swamp. "Who's got us favored against these guys?" Sumrall said of the unbeaten Rebels, according to reporting from multiple outlets.
Sumrall joked that whoever set the line must have had access to "a lot of good drugs," per ESPN and CBS Sports. The first-year Florida coach indicated he wouldn't be inclined to bet on his own team in the matchup, saying he "isn't a betting man," according to Yahoo Sports.
Florida entered the AP Top 25 this week ahead of the Saturday clash. Ole Miss is coming off an emotional 32-24 win over LSU, according to one report.
