Belmont Bruins at Florida Gators Prediction
This game should by no means be penciled in as a win for the Gators, regardless of where it is taking place and who it against. Belmont as an institution has without question acquired substantial big game experience against big name opponents. This is team that qualified for the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament on four occasions in the past five years. Almost always, the Bruins were pitted against an elite opponent in the first round and this gives them a huge advantage as they travel to Gainesville. Bruins Coach Rick Byrd has the experience and expertise against Power Conference foes as it has been an integral part of him architecting this program. This is a basketball team that has consistently won more than 20 games each year in 11 of the 13 previous seasons. The Bruins will show no trepidation against the Gators as they will see this as yet another opportunity to make a name for their up and coming program. The Gators should be well careful when entering this fixture as Belmont will certainly give them everything they have and even if the Bruins fall there is more than enough points here for Belmont to come in under the number.
