Florida 84 Tenn 59 final

[mrmojack]

Maybe they were looking ahead to coming north in the cold.

Just loving this beat down on Tennessee..

Another Domino???

Nice beat down of the Vols by the quick, athletic Gators. 84-59

 

[Tonyc]

We will move up Sunday is a huge game for UConn

I have watched a good number of LV games this season. They have regressed. The LV’s commit dumb fouls, turn the ball over frequently and break down constantly on D. Unlike UConn, most of their team, and all of their stars are healthy. No excuse to be playing this badly in February.

 

[Notyetready]

I mean shellacked… by a #63 NET ranked team

 

[SECbbfan24]

Florida is much better than what most give credit for but thats still a pretty embarrassing loss. It wasn't even remotely close. Terrific coaching job by Florida

 

[MilfordHusky]

Tennessee is trending in the wrong direction: 1 seed, 2 seed, 3 seed, bubble.

 

[Charliebball]

I'm not sure if that loss is a good thing or a bad thing for UConn...............is Tennesse going to be totally lacking in confidence or really angry and out for Husky?..............I'm still taking Tennesse seriously because the team I've seen up until recently has played really well coming from behind on a number of occasions against pretty decent competition............I'm all in favor of a serious beat down but I'm doubtful that will be the case....

 

[Boxerpups4me]

There’s a meltdown of epic proportions over on volnation!!!!

 

[Plebe]

For once the Boneyard jinx didn't work. You're lucky.

 

[darrell]

Their fans have enjoyed UConn’s two losses to unranked teams, now they’re in the same boat. Only difference is that the teams that beat UConn are currently ranked and likely will be to close out the season.

Florida FG % 53.2 U of Tenn 37.5 %
for TENN T Key 8 points
R. Burell 9 points
Horston 5 points
for Florida Kiara Smith 25 points
Did anyone see the game?? What happened??
Good D? Florida too quick for them??

I think the key is to delay the thread until the fourth quarter with the Vols being down double digits.... as opposed to a thread made while the game is still in the 1st quarter.

A little foul trouble for UT and they couldn't hit the broadside of a barn. On top of that it looked like Florida just wanted it more.

I did not like this result in the long run. Sure there is instant gratification but the domino effect is not ideal

1) If we beat a team on a down turn, what do we really learn about ourselves ??
2) If we lose to a team that just got crushed, not pretty

3) Do we not take them as seriously as we should?

Anyway., I prefer TN lose by last second dagger shots like Paiges anyway

 

[SCspur]

Florida is actually a very good team. KiKi smith is a tough matchup for anyone and her supporting cast is good as well.

 

[huskeynut]

Nothing like a good butt whoopin'.

If nobody else gets injured and we have Dorka back, I like our chances.

 

[CL82]

The amount of angst I've seen on this board over the TN game...

Angst or joy? Because it sure seems to be the latter to me.

It was angst before... the tone has changed in the past few weeks.

 

[Tonyc]

I watched the game and Florida just hustled played with intensity and ran the ball. Dont forget Tenn has been behind in alot of games and pulled it out late. They never got it goin tonite and lost. They now have 3 losses and UConn at home on Sunday. Its gonna be crazy .

 

[Gamecockfan77]

We will move up Sunday is a huge game for UConn

Welp.

 

[pvdoggy]

Obviously looking past Florida anticipating beating an underdog injured Uconn team
