[LeeForThree]

This is the day Florida shocks the basketball world and the overrated kitties take a beating and a loss.

Florida 72 UK 53

Frazier makes 6 3pters

Love your optimism. UF by 4.

Go Gators!!

 

[NavetG8r]

Go Gators!

 

[PatDooleySucks]

UF doesn't need big game to win. Just need to hit FT and even out the FT advantage. They do it and slide by with a win.

I need to get some of that stuff you have been smoking.

Go Gators...

Shock the world Gators! This tourney has been rife with upsets so far.

Would be great to see these guys get an upset win today. Frazier looks like he hasn't found his shot yet.. if he starts hitting it can make a big difference. This team needs to play perfect basketball to win... it would be so much fun to see them go on a run and win the SEC tourney!

A win would be glorious.

We lost by 17 last time I think...I expect around the same. Keep it close early then UK's size and pure talent runs away from us.

We just don't have the horses. The talent disparity is that big.

77-62 Bad guys

womp womp womp wah.

Agree with T Rex. We hang for nearly a half before folding due to weak depth and/or crushed by immense depth and losing by double digits. I'll grade our performance a B+ before the game even begins. Good heart, good try, just outmatched.

We played them tough both times, but as DFS said yesterday we didn't match their intensity the last 5-10 minutes of the game. It'll take a great game for 40 minutes to get the win, but UK is not unbeatable.

GO GATORS!!!!!!!!!!

Anyone is beatable on any given day especially in a one and done format. The issue is the talent gap. UK's enormous advantage gives their team a wider margin for error. I don't see anyone beating them unless they play a perfect game and UK plays a very bad one.

Also, I'm not sure losing by 17 is playing them tough. Maybe tough for a half is a better way of describing it.

 

[MJMGator]

Playing well early...up 10-5.

 

[Gator Fever]

Go Gators...

 

[LeeForThree]

10-7 Florida under 16 timeout. Great first 5 min. Lots of drives and cuts to the basket.

10-7 Florida under 16 timeout. Great first 5 min. Lots of drives and cuts to the basket.

All our points are in the paint and all but 1 basket has been from assists. Playing good team basketball.

 

[MJMGator]

Still up 15-14, but turnovers are killing us. We've already got 4 or 5 to their 1 I think.

 

[LeeForThree]

15-14 Florida under 12 Timeout. Frazier 2 fouls has been non existent. Bad turnover by Chiozza on the last possession.
