Prairie View A&M Panthers vs Florida Gators Prediction, Odds and Picks for Tomorrow, 03/20/26

The Prairie View A&M Panthers scored an impressive 67-55 victory in a First Four game against the Lehigh Mountain Hawks of the Patriot League. It was the first-ever NCAA Tournament win for the Panthers, who hit 47% from the field, with F Cory Wells went for 19 points, 11 rebounds, three steals and three blocks while G Dontae Horne ended up with 25 points, seven rebounds, four steals, a block and a three-pointer. The SWAC representative has been on fire in the postseason, winning and covering five in a row. It has won 1o the past 11 games, too, while going 11-0 against the spread (ATS) since Feb. 16, too. Against the SEC this season, PVAM has covers against Missouri, LSU and Texas A&M, each on the road.

The defending national champions are likely going to be super angry after suffering a 91-74 loss against Vanderbilt in the SEC semifinals, and it has failed to cover the past two games. However, Florida did close the regular season on a 9-2 ATS run from Jan. 28 to March 7. The Gators likely won’t be out to embarrass the Panthers, calling off the dogs after building a big lead, letting the reserves play. As a favorite of 30 or more points, Florida is 0-4 ATS this season.

Prairie View A&M +35.5 (-115) at time of publishing. Playable to +34.5.
