Over the line sir

Pretty crazy pic though.

I think Fla is an Elite 8 team if Yeguete is healthy. Without him? Doubtful. I'd be a little concerned with the rebounding if I were a Gator fan. Teams that make it to the Final 4 usually don't get outrebounded like they did last night. Yeguete would've made it closer, but I don't think he would've evened it up.

GatorsGators doesn't think Yeguete is as good of a defensive player as Wilbekin. I disagreed. McRae scored on anyone who guarded him last night. Yeguete is a glue guy that Fla needs back.

No reason to worry Gator fan. Tennessee is on fire right now and we keep catching teams at the right times. The good news for Florida is, they don't play that well on the road but luckily, it's a road game for everyone in the tournament. They have great guards, play good defense and take care of the ball. If they could rebound better, they'd be a force. I still wouldn't be shocked seeing Florida in the final four. Say what you want about Billy D but that man knows how to win big time games on big time stages.

Shame on some of y'all in here looking for reasons to label me a troll.

No need to look for reasons. I'm still trying to console Will Grier.

I would never do this for football. If it ever gets to that point i will be in jail for murder.

A lot of us probably thought we wouldn't be able to survive UT football sinking as low as it has, but UT football is basically a joke right now, the sun's still coming out each day, and we're all still here.

 

[whocaresgobobcats]

We'll agree to disagree a little here...........it was a huge game for Florida too. This probably cost them a 1 seed in the tourney.

All that being said, UT was hungrier and Florida just didn't seem to care.

riiiight, florida didn't care so thats why UT beat them. Just like UK didn't care after Nerlens was out.

Or maybe UT's players just played harder, better, smarter and Billy was outcoached again by Cuonzo.

 

[Jax_Vol]

We just OWN Billy D...absolutely OWN him!

 

[JohnWardForever]

For whatever reason, you guys own us..........I didn't expect to win going into the game so I'm just glad it wasn't a blowout. Mcrae and some of your other guys are ballers.

Downside is it wiped out our shot at a 1 seed so we'll probably be a 3 seed now.

Thanks. Where's 99?

 

[JohnWardForever]

The whole night I was looking at Florida's team and thinking how much more athletic and skilled individually they looked but we were still out playing them. I guess our guys just do things a bit less pretty ha.

Gatas do pass the eye test; fo sho.

 

[daj2576]

The first Vol fans I see..........and anyone on our team or coaching staff who is a part of the travesty.

You must have been born after 1992.



That being said, I appreciate the humility and grace after last night. Good-show.

You must not be very old...I remember when Fla wasn't even an afterthought in FB (or BB) it was called "up until the 1990's!"

Florida is def way more talented individually than UT, but for whatever reason we seem to own Florida in basketball (at the present moment). Donovan is a hell of a coach too, guess our guys just wanted it more. Regardless, go Vols.

Give Coach Martin credit for having this team prepared after that grueling 4 OT game Saturday. His substitutions, defensive strategy and overall game prep far exceeded what Donovan could have imagined. He has this team on a roll right now.
