Well I have posted plenty of negative posts in basketball threads with the start of this season, but I have found a straw to grasp. Perhaps this team can be like the 2010-11 Gators who eventually earned a 2 seed (and maybe should have been a 1 seed) and were robbed in the round of 8 against Butler.
That team lost early big to Ohio State who shredded UF's press. Then that team also lost in Orlando to UCF in a terrible performance and to JU at home. That team also lost AT HOME to a bad SoCar team in their 3rd SEC game..
But from that game on that team turned it around winning tough road games and going 11-2 the rest of the SEC season to finish 13-3 in the conference. So maybe, just maybe, UF will turn it around this year and have something like a 12-4 SEC record to be the team we hoped this group could be just a few short weeks ago.
It will take some players playing smarter. It will take the bigs playing harder. But it has been done in the past and maybe these guys will get tired of playing poorly and start playing harder and smarter.
