Im going, so, well, that is all I wanted to say!
The pressure is now on you to bring us to the Final Four. Make us proud!
One of the dumbest statements I've seen regarding our team.
Thanks for the heads up
So do you have any example when say our first six players have all played up to their potential? Now in almost every game one or two did. Say our last Vandy loss, if Barry had played to his usual standard we would have won in regulation, when did he ever miss two FTs in a row previously?
So perhaps you just don't understand a Chief?

A little color:
Yeguette with the awesome block off the glass, Frazier battles for the ball and knocks it free, Hill comes up with the loose ball, streaks down the floor, and passes off to a hard charging Prather for the slam! Oh my!
That's the teamwork Billy always demanded. That team and the O4s were so fun to watch because of that hustle and team attitude.
So three of their talking heads 'so called experts' all pick Wisky to beat us, then this article turns around and says we're heading to the Final 4?What CBS thinks will happen in the East and other regions from here on out:

Well:
1. I think part of the objection to your conjecture was your idea that the only way UF could beat Wisconsin would be if everyone played up to their full potential. That is likely untrue. As someone else said, UF has a number of guys who can take 3s, Allen, Leon, Barry, Robinson, Stone and if a couple of them are on, that bodes well for UF, that is a couple not all of them.
2. UF had a game where UF's starters Robinson, Leon, Egbunu, Allen and Hill scored 14, 10, 10, 11 17 points respectively. Off the bench Hayes scored 9 points in 17 min, Chiozza scored 11 points and Barry scored 30 points. I guess you could complain that in 6 minutes Stone did not score? Your comment suggests that you meant offensively, but you could also complain that UF gave up 95 points that game. Still I would say UF pretty much played to its offensive potential that night.
3. UF had another game where UF's starters Robinson, Leon, Egbunu, Allen and Hill scored 24, 15, 11, 11, 6 where Hill scored the 6 on 3 of 8 shooting. Hayers scored 12 off the bench, Hester scored 16 and Chiozza scored 9 with 10 assists. I guess if you want to complain, you can point out that again Stone did not score. Barry did not play. This was another 100+ scoring night and UF held the opponent to 79 points to win big.
4. So there we have it, UF has had games with everyone playing close to their potential and as I said in point 1, UF probably does not have to have everyone have their best game ever to beat Wisconsin.
It's sports, no team has every member play their best. We have lost 8 games all year and are in the Sweet 16, I think we've had plenty of guys play well together at the same time.
How about vs UK in the O'Dome? Was that still not good enough?
The '04s lost plenty of winnable games in the regular season.You make a mistake, I have an opinion, the game will tell.
When we won two championships in a row the six players who played most of the game all played up to their capabilities. Lee made his threes, not all of them but a vast percentage of them, the bigs forced the defense to give him the room to make them. Not perfect but up to their capabilities.
And all three Vandy games were winnable especially the last one. Like I said you don't understand this Chief.
And this is why I disagree with the assertion earlier that winning a bunch of games in a row is tougher than winning a title. I don't think many teams set goals based on winning streaks. The 04s lost some games in year 2 when they already had the conference locked up. They were taking it easy.The '04s lost plenty of winnable games in the regular season.
