I am pretty calm on this and I will be watching with a room full of Gator fans. I don’t think we’ll win and I’ve been telling people UF is the best team in the country for months, but I feel like we have a chance. We’re interesting in that we fight hard against everyone. Anyone not fearful of us doesn’t realize that no one runs off the court. They might blow us out, but I wouldn’t be overconfident if I were them. We tend to make every game interesting. If we start hitting shots, look out.

If we can make them play ugly ball we have a chance.

If we want to beat Florida, I do not believe this 20/20 approach with Samson and Reed will work. IMO Hurley needs to go in planning with one playing 30+ minutes, otherwise our offense just won’t flow and we’ll get stuck in the swap, so to speak….

Dan and Staff are the best X and O planners out there. I think they will surprise tomorrow. Keep the Faith. If.....we get a win tomorrow watch out!!!! We are back to holding up the BE.
Creighton is getting ready to fold now. Perhaps not. Keeping an eye on this game. Does Auburn have a bit of choke in em?? Nope. Neal, Ashworth and Kalkbrenner all are seniors I think. Seems like Kalkbrenner has been there for ten years. I wonder if any of them still have another year because of the COVID rule??

Can Hurley at least weave some bridge minutes together for Ross, Nowell and even Singare. Especially if we get in foul trouble.

NO

 

[huskyharry]

Yes. Unless he’s dribbling out a blowout victory.

I saw say start him…he wont be in their scout and it will cause confusion!

Auburn has played their A game for much of this game and Creighton has stayed close. Talent level is not much different but of course we are doomed!

Our 2023 team proved to me that we don't need an All American on our roster to win it all. That means any of our 'good' teams can win the Championship, and this team is good.

It's just now I want to see greatness, because all of our Championship teams reached greatness in March/April. The post season transition from good to greatness is our DNA.

Florida is one of the best rebounding teams in the country and will abuse us on the glass with Samson in there. No thank you. It's fully a Tarris game and if Dan decides to roll Samson out there as a primary, I'll be convinced he is seeing this season more as a tribute to his B2B returnees than he does actually wanting to win.

I'm 100% convinced Dan will roll out Samson to start the game. He always does and he is not changing that. But, I do believe that will be adjusted quicker today.

He will, a creature of habit, not a tinkerer, whether right or wrong. Florida is a top 5 team in rebounding and will play 2 centers for half the game, inclusive of how they start the game. Not sure how Hurley can even contemplate having Samson long under those circumstances. He'll keep doing his thing, have come to recognize it as a blind spot.
