UPDATE 1 P.M. ET SATURDAY: Within a couple hours of opening Georgia -16 on Sunday, Caesars Sports dropped to -14.5 on its college football Week 9 odds board. The line stuck there all week until moving to Bulldogs -14 today.

Georgia is taking 57% of spread tickets, but 68% of spread cash is on underdog Florida.

UPDATE 5 P.M. ET THURSDAY: PointsBet is painted to Georgia -14.5, with not so much as a juice move so far in the college football Week 9 odds market. Underdog Florida is getting the bulk of attention, with spread tickets 2/1 and spread money 3/1 on the Gators.

The total opened at 49 (Under -125), bottomed out Tuesday at 47, then went to 48 this afternoon. The Over is taking 73% of tickets, but 53% of cash is on the Under.

UPDATE 2 P.M. ET MONDAY: Georgia is 7-0 SU but hasn't been a bank-account booster at just 2-5 ATS. The Bulldogs had a Week 8 bye, after beating Vanderbilt 38-20 while failing to cash as 32.5-point favorites.

Florida (5-2 SU/3-4 ATS) also had a week off before this week's neutral-site contest in Jacksonville. In Week 7, the Gators were 1-point road pups and edged South Carolina 41-39 on a final-minute TD.

TwinSpires moved Georgia from -14.5 to -15, but is now back at the -14.5 opener. The Bulldogs are drawing 52% of spread bets/58% of spread money.

"We're bouncing back-and-forth early in the week. We're seeing healthy handle on both sides," Lucas said.

The total is down a tick to 48.5, with 56% of bets/63% of money on the Under.
