That Hayes shot was so huge considering he never is clutch!

Great win and toughness from them!

And hey, a winnable semi-finals game either way....

KJ needs some work on the free throws, but damn he's playing great these last 2.

Last 2 games. Nembhard 14 assists 1 turnover...awesome.

Nice call!
Thanks man, I like this one too to pat my own back:
We're not out of this yet despite what the dip**** announcers keep saying. They keep saying we should be down by 20 but that's just frikkin stupid. If we were shooting our normal 3 and FT percentage we should be tied. If shots fall in the second half we have a chance, if they don't we're screwed. It's really as simple as that. Got to keep hustling on defense and for every loose ball.

Dumbazzes are still saying LSU lost the game in the first half because they should have been up by 20 at half. How, were we supposed to shoot zero percent from 3 and FT line?

Huge win for Mike White. Maybe he's a baller when it's tourney time after all? Certainly bought himself some goodwill today.

Ran a lot of on ball screens the last 10 minutes of the game which finally freed up some open shots that we started making!!!!!!!

Game winner...the freshman to freshman pass here was amazing. Keyontae and Nembhard carried us again today. But decent game from Allen and Hudson put us over the top. I think we had 2 bench pts lol

Just watched it about 10 times in a row. The sound of the ball hitting the net is music to me ears :)

Ticket definitely punched now. Great comeback win over a solid LSU team. That Naz Reid is something else, but the good guys kept plugging away and never gave up or in.

Another great afternoon watching Gator sports. Great game! Amusing to read all the panic early in the game. Coach had a nice game plan and had everyone involved. 5 in double digits scoring?

Clearly lots of development showing with Hayes last half of the season. Coach brought Allen and Hudson back from the dead, brought KJ and Andrew along beautifully and now major contributors. Bassett and Stokes showed definite improvement as the season progressed and of late we have seen Okauru find his way back on the court to contribute.

Certainly some ebbs and flows throughout the season but Coach has done a nice job getting an offensively limited group to come together. Held it together with a strong emphasis on team defense.

We’re not going much further most likely but I think we’ve set the program for sustainable success moving forward.

No....Coach isn’t going away anytime soon.

Apparently not. We can talk about this player or that player but coaching won this game as much as anything

The Gators have had some amazing buzzer beaters in the NCAA Tourny (Mike Miller versus Butler and Chris Chiozza versus Wisconsin) but Nembhard’s game winning 3 pointer versus LSU today is right up there for amazing game winning shots in the SEC Tourny. Congrats to the entire Gator Basketball Team and Coach White on an amazing comeback. Keep advancing. Looks like we’re going dancing!!

Look at the bottom of the screen on the left side of press row just above “Florida” on the on-screen graphic. You can see Mick jump up and pump his fist when the shot goes in. Can’t wait to hear his call!
