Utah -5 2.2% play

The line opened 9 or 9.5, and has dropped since the news broke of Cam Rising being out, and now you are seeing this # tick back up with all the Florida +9 trying to hedge out and get a nice middle at a TD.  Personally, I don't think any one player is worth this many points, and when you factor in Bryson Barnes experience in big moments when Rising has been out I think he is more than capable of playing well.  The team has also been practicing with Barnes and were probably pretty aware he was going to get the start.

I think Florida is a bit over rated again, and I have serious questions about them going on the road to face a tough Utah team at elevation to open the season with Graham Mertz as their QB.  Utah also will have revenge on their mind after Florida upset them a season ago.  Utah returns 9 defensive starters and have a very good home field advantage.
