I know exactly how you feel. I want to give that avatar a like myself every time I see it (how many other schools can say they have the NFL GOAT directing their marching band)?

What!??! I hope that is sarcasm. No true real fan would say this and be content with it. And if we r "supposed to lose" them, that's why they are must wins! When you can't beat mediocre NC state teams, you have to win these games to prove they were a fluke. Only way we win today is if McRae puts up 30 again!

So you want to call me out for stating a fact that no one expected this to be a win for us, but then you counter with McRae has to score 30 for us to win?

You may be right. UT always brings its A game against us.

It's entirely possible for UF to be a Final Four contender and still lose at home to Tennessee.

Yeah it's just a different game between us and you guys. I think it'll be close either way.

Right. If I remember correctly, during the 2 NC years for the gators, TN won 3 of 4 against them. Anything can happen in this series.

I'm pretty sure you're Cuonzo himself. So with a perspective like that, we r bound to lose!

Guys: has it really come to this with Tennessee basketball!?? Accepting losses to Florida because we are "supposed to lose"!!???" In the words of Ed Lover: "c'mon son!". If we lose this game, it will be unacceptable and I won't want to watch this team in the dance even if they make it. This is a must win and saying it's not is foolish and you are just drinking the Cuonzo Aid.

Lol then stop watching. It's unacceptable to lose to a better team? That's laughable right there.

Chris Lofton was on all 3 wins and out with ankle injury in the loss by 16. At the point the game was played he was averaging 16.7. Would have been interesting to see had he been healthy enough to go. Unfortunately Chris Lofton isn't walking into that gym today.

I have watched the Gators several times this season. I really think we can hurt them inside with Maymon and Stokes if we work hard for shots. I am hoping that McRae and Barton have the three working if they do I think we win this one.

We may of won back then but we didn't have Coach Martin as our coach with no intensity what so ever for our program. I hope we win but I don't see it happening with him as our coach.

Note: I meant this game in particular.

Seems kinda tuff for a #40 ish team to beat a #6 team. A good battle could develop if Jarnell and McRae both show up.

UT 68
Fla 76

Lol. You do know that Martin is 3-0 against UF, don't you?

I'd be lying if I said I was aware of that. That's a good point. I just can't stand Martin not showing any type of passion and I figured in a game this big you would need that from your head coach. They're the number six team in the country.

We can play with them, we will need some breaks to go our way. See this being a lot like the UK game. We need to shoot a lot better than we did against UK tho.

Then again the players shouldn't have to have any type of passion being a rivalry game. My question is if we get down, who would bring them back up?
