Gator Basketball ***Official BBALL Game Thread*** Florida vs Michigan

[TLB]

Dec 19, 7PM on ESPN

Gators (7-3) favored to win 59% over Michigan (5-5) 41% per ESPN predictor. Can't find odds anywhere yet.

Game is in Charlotte for 0223 Jumpman Classic. There is also UNC vs Oklahoma (all four schools use Jumpman apparel), with the mens games on Tuesday, Dec 19 and the women's programs matching up the next day. There does not appear to be a 'championship'.

Hopefully that fixed it.

Glad to hear that Juwann Howard will be back just in time to get into a fight with one of our players or coaches.

Michigan is really classing up college athletics these days.

If they continue it next season, UF will rotate to play both UNC squads

LFG!

Too much standing around on offense.

 

[Double Gator Dad]

We look awful on both ends

 

[LeeForThree]

Florida is down 7-6 at the under 16 timeout. Kugel been pure **** again. Dropped the ball 2 times, missed 4 shots already

He’s becoming a consistently bad player.
Curious to see how long Golden lets him go tonight.

Kugel launching like he’s Steph curry lol

 

[Durty South Swamp]

Kugel is liquid ass at this point. He needs to sit. A lot.

 

[LeeForThree]

Florida is down 17-13 at the under 12 timeout. Not a single thing outside the paint for us

 

[LeeForThree]

Florida is down 23-22 at the under 8 timeout. Clayton hits a 3pter onnthe break lead by Samuel and Richard had a fast break dunk after a great steal by Haugh

 

[MertzJay26]

I cringe every time an opponent jacks a 3 up. It’s insane the rate at which teams are hitting 3s against us

 

[LeeForThree]

Florida is tied 35-35 at the under 4 timeout. All big men that stretch with Handlogten hitting a 3pter and Condon with a few more baskets
