Florida is an elite 8 team

As much as it pains me to say this, Go Gators. I did not have much faith in them when I filled out my brackets, but anytime an SEC team is competing for our conference I will cheer them on. Would be great to see 2 SEC teams in the Elite Eight, and I would really enjoying watching UK play UF in the Final Four.

I'd like to see 2 SEC teams in the Final 4.

If that were to happen, would UK beat them for a 4th time in 1 season?

It's funny how they were only overseeded after Florida mauled them. :rolleyes: You're not thinking of SDSU; I think you're thinking of Gonzaga. They played Ohio State in the second round; SDSU lost to NC State in the first round.

Wtf are you talking about? Read the post I quoted before you post.

So did Marquette...

And, Louisville thrives on speed, not physicality. It's a good matchup for Florida, imo.

Lol - Louisville speeds you up - but they are physical and you will get raped by their press if you don't man up. They mauled one of the best teams remaining in the NCAAT with their physicality. They don't compare to Marquette at all.

Good win over Marquette by Florida. The Elite 8 matchup on Saturday will be a great one. Florida is a stellar offensive team, and Louisville is one of the best defensive teams in the nation.

That being said, UT's road to the Elite 8 in 2010 and Florida's this year are almost identical. Underwhelming first round opponent, cakewalk second round and then a solid win in teh Sweet 16.

You clearly never watched SDSU that year. And Ohio State in 2010 might as well have been a #1 seed. Not even close to comparable.

Yet they split with Louisville this year...

Louisville sped MSU up because MSU didn't have a player who could match up athletically with Louisville. They are physical, but they rely much more on speed than on physicality. Florida is one of the few teams with as much (or almost as much) speed as Louisville. Florida is way better on offense, though. Louisville is way better on defense (but Prather and Wilbekin have definitely improved our defense). It should be a really good game. We'll see.

Oh I didn't realize just cause someone split that made them identical. I suppose Florida and Georgia are identical too.

Florida will be blown out unless they go crazy from 3 point land.

Well, Marquette also went 14-4 in the Big East, compared to Louisville's 10-8. Of course they're not identical, but let's not pretend like Louisville is that much better than Marquette. Are they better? Yes. But, you're acting like Marquette is an NIT team and Louisville is one of the best teams of all time.

No I just think Marquette is a team that was built terribly for a tourney run. I was surprised they even made it to the second weekend.

So is Louisville, though. UL got hot and won the BE Tourney over the likes of Cuse, Marquette, GTown.

Gonna be a good game.

If UF comes out making jumpers, UL is in for a long night though.

Nah...UT blowing a 20 point lead against Ohio State in '07 was much worse.

But make no mistake, we definitely choked that game away today...glad it brought a smile to your face.

True colors shining through, as always. As I have always maintained, other than the 2 year anomaly, this is Florida basketball.

Day? Hell, it made my month!!! That was GREAT!!!!!


With about 10 minutes to play, they showed Billy D on the sideline. He was so tight, you could have inserted a quarter into his azz and he could have ground it down to a dime for ya.


Bwwwwwwaaaaaaa........classic game! I bet SportsCenter pulls out their Lewinsky photo in describing that one. It was GREAT!!!!

It's our "other" sport, like football is at UK.

When UK wins back-to-back national titles in football, you'll understand why most Gator fans aren't all :cray: right now.

We had a good run, but we choked today.
