At home... 7 pm ... ESPNU
Arky is on a 5-game losing streak ... are they overdue?....16-9 (4-8)
Lost last game to MSU ......Alert ! they scored 45 in 2nd half.

Team stats >> FG% = 43.7 ______ 3-pt% = 31.7% _____ FT% = 57.6% ________ TOs = 12/g

6'5" G ... Mason 20.8 ppg __________ 6'5" G ... Joe 16 ppg ________ G 6'3 ......Whitt 14.6

Arky is definitely a 2nd half team.

Conner Vanover 7'3" ???? forward.

I really like our chances in this one since Arky is slumping right now but I have liked our chances in several other losses so who knows what will happen.

We really need to win this one since the rest of the slate looks tough for us

Just thinking ... Did the visit by Donovan plus those really successful NBA Gators boost our youngsters' morale?
With the meeting of our tall greats, let's watch to see how Payne plays today. Even Jitoboh?
Arkansas has beat some of our top SEC teams, I think?

Kudos to Arky for starting the season strongly and getting people to take notice, but they did it against a very soft schedule. Arky is not good and their obvious deficiencies have got up to them during the conference schedule. They are extremely small, completely perimeter oriented on both ends of the floor and are a terrible rebounding team, both statistically and to the eye. Pound the ball inside, drive the ball to the basket and if neither works, keep doing it. Exploit the obvious mismatch.

Apparently we’re still somehow projected as a 9 seed? Is this the worst season of college basketball ever?

A little sloppy but we are hustling to the ball and Locke has hit a couple 3pters

I see KJ just missed a layup; no matter. This year our layups have the correct 'english' on them, much better. Are y'all seeing Jitoboh pound the hardwood running hard. ?? Maybe White is gonna get Jitoboh readier? KJ with 8.

Florida is up 21-7 at the under 13 timeout. Locke has 3 3pters and Keyontae has dome well getting to the rim to score

Mann needed that 3. He’s been hesitant to shoot....passing up about 3 good looks. If he ever gets untracked we are going to take a step forward.

Florida is up 28-11 at the under 8 timeout. Creating and making open shots from all 3 levels. Still a tad sloppy feel, but sharing the basketball

If he can hit 2-3 3pters a game we would be so much better

Florida is up 31-18 at the under 4 timeout. Need to get back on track making shots and freshman (Jitiboh and Glover not taking bad ones)
