Gator Basketball UF beats #4 Auburn in Basketball

[rogdochar]

Saturday 1:30 at home McConnell Center. 1;30 pm on CBS.
Big SEC showdown with both teams in second at 2-1 won-loss.
UF worry is Nembhard's flu may keep him out or diminish his worthy play.
Auburn is #4 in the nation at 15-1.
It should test Mike White's coaching resources, like never before. We will be watching it all.
CBS is a big stage. Will this be where our freshmen summon up some breakthrough?
Glover, Mann, Lewis can they get to warp speed and steadily score, collect fouls? Gonna take that to beat Auburn.??

When Blackshear first said "yes, I choose UF" did our doctors notice that he couldn't put his left heel flat on the floor. Could he have taken a medical redshirt, get better surgeons, better results and play with a normal left foot next year? I am certain, with that flub-foot he isn't advancing his NBA ranking.??

1st of all, there's supposed to be an O-Dome blackout tomorrow. You forgot to mention that. And if Nembie and KJ are ill, let's hope the blackout includes the TV feed.

2ndly, I do not believe Blackshear's foot can be fixed, so quit staring at it. He can make a great living overseas playing basketball if his 'condition' keeps him from the NBA. Glad to have him on our team. Best big man we've had since Patrick Young.

"quit staring at it" Good one, Sam, that's probably what I started doing. I'll remember your advice tomorrow and probably catch myself. He is a fine player.
Doubt CBS ever lets anybody black out one of their game broadcasts.

 

[Musclepug]

Sorry, irrelevant I know. This was last night and I wanted to put it somewhere

 

[JDW]

I just hope it’s a great game...we gotta get through all this

 

[MertzJay26]

Just hit shots

 

[rogdochar]

We need to crash the boards, need to make our passes forcefully, too fast for the Auburn defense to keep apace.
Please, White, don't let Auburn embarrass our youngsters.

 

[JDW]

I just listened to Alboverdi on a podcast abc the Auburn guy said they’re shooting 25% from three and as long as they defend the basket Auburn is at a loss and he even predicted a gator win...without Nembhard I don’t see it though

Our season so far has or should have been preparation for this next stretch of games and beyond. We will know what we have and what to expect in the next two weeks.

Go Gators!!!

I think we already know what we have.

 

[Frozen Gator]

I think we already know what we have.

I get that and don't necessarily disagree but it's only reasoning I can conjure up and remain hopeful.

 

[LeeForThree]

Florida is up 7-0 at the under 16 timeout. Payne has 4 points and an assist. Locke is 1-4 3pters

 

[MertzJay26]

Ugly so far but I guess I’ll take it

Could be yet another long day shooting the ball

 

[LeeForThree]

Florida is up 11-5 at the under 12 timeout. Really bad offense early. Payne has 6 pts and Blackshear cant make a shot. Defense playing hard though

 

[rogdochar]

Well, it's a start. Is Auburn bothered by our defense? Payne a strictly inside man. Many time teammates are handed the ball by Paye while he continues towards the basket, hand high open to complete the give and go, but his mates do not look for it. I really think he could have 2 more scores or at least drawn fouls. No reason Payne can't repeat that.

 

[maheo30]

As soon as barn starts hitting shots, they will throttle us.

 

[rogdochar]

Nembhard just flu by that Auburn defender.

 

[Frozen Gator]

We don't need to leave head band open

 

[LeeForThree]

Keyontae with 2 straight fouls
