One thing to remember, our shooting woes appear to be our own doing while our
opponent's struggles are a result of our good defense.
We just need to make more shots. We have been in every game so far other than
UK. Bodes well if the shooting picks up.

that is bad!) I think that I might even have been able to beat Hill in a free

I am generally pleased with the defense we showed..
I am also surprised that our rebounding was not as strong as it was against
Alabama.
Was the team down with a flu virus!?

They really needed that one. Didn't want to see a late season collapse gain any
momentum.

This was worth staying up for. Georgia led by 6 points at the half.
Back and forth the whole second half. The camera panned the crowd at the end.
Pretty sure I heard a lot of Gator fans in the crowd when we went up by four at
the end.
It was so gratifying to see the Georgia fans with the stunned look! Ha ha ha…
Take it Dog Meat!!!
And… We only have 199 days to go!!
100 until Darlene starts the Count Down!
Woohoo!!!

ATHENS, Ga. — Florida kept defending through its shooting woes Tuesday night
against Georgia.
Then, freshman guard KeVaughn Allen heated up just in time.
Allen hit UF’s go-ahead 3-pointer with 3:25 remaining, and Florida stiffened
down the stretch for a 57-53 win over Georgia at Stegeman Coliseum.
Allen’s 3-pointer put Florida up 50-47, and a dunk from center John Egbunu off
a dish from point guard Kasey Hill put Florida up 52-47 with 2:01 left.
But Georgia guard Kenny Gaines hit a miracle 3-pointer that bounced off the
iron, five feet in the air, and landed back through the basket that cut UF’s
lead to 52-50. Sophomore point guard Chris Chiozza made two free throws to put
Florida up 54-50, but Gaines again hit another 3 to cut Florida’s lead to 54-53
with 24.8 seconds left.
Senior forward Dorian Finney-Smith followed with two clutch free throws to put
Florida back up 56-53, and Gaines failed to come through a third time, missing
a deep 3-point attempt with four seconds remaining. Allen made one of two free
throws to close out the game.
Allen led the Gators with 19 points, with Egbunu adding 10 points. The 6-foot-2
guard from North Little Rock, Ark. scored 14 points in the second half.
“The first half, I really couldn’t find a rhythm, to get my shot,” Allen said.
“But in the second half I think I really had found it.”
Egbunu said Allen’s big shots helped fuel the team on the defensive end.
“It’s amazing,” Egbunu said. “I tell him all the time I’m really happy for him.
He takes big shots, he takes really tough ones, and he still hits. So that’s
really good. We’re happy for him and we’re all rooting him. He hit some really
big shots down the stretch that gave us the boost we needed.”
Florida (17-9, 8-5 SEC) overcame shooting 36.4 percent from the field and 20
percent from 3-point range (5-25) by holding Georgia (14-10, 7-6 SEC) to just
32.3 percent from the floor.
“That’s the way it should be,” Florida coach Mike White said. “That’s how you
should play. You can’t rely on seeing the basket go through the net for you to
play hard. We’ve done it a few times this year.”
Florida picked up its third road win of the season and bounced back from a
61-55 home loss to Alabama on Saturday. It’s a good start to back-to-back games
on the road that concludes Saturday at South Carolina, which lost to Missouri
earlier Tuesday night.
“To win anywhere on the road is difficult, especially coming off a really tough
emotional loss, on a quick turn, it seemed like we played Alabama just
yesterday,” White said. “Hopefully it will give us confidence. Hopefully it
will show our guys what we’re capable of.”
Florida trailed by as many as seven points in the second half, but rallied
behind Allen, who made a pair of 3-pointers during an 8-0 run that put Florida
up 34-33.
The Gators led 41-38 on a driving layup by sophomore forward Devin Robinson,
but Georgia answered by getting to the foul line. First, Egbunu was whistled
for his third foul, which led to two free throws by Yante Maten to cut UF’s
lead to 41-40. Then Robinson was caught in the air and landed on Georgia guard
Charles Mann as he fired up a 3-point attempt. Mann made two of three free
throws to put Georgia up 42-41.
Florida tweaked its starting lineup, going with Hill over Chiozza at point
guard and Justin Leon at small forward instead of Robinson.
Leon and Hill combined to score UF’s first six points and teamed up on a steal
to give the Gators an early 6-3. But Florida then dropped into its funk of
missed 3-point attempts.
Florida missed its first nine 3-point attempts before Allen made a 3-pointer on
an inbounds play to tie the score at 18. But Florida would close the half
missing its next seven 3-point attempts to go 1 of 17 from 3-point range in the
first half.
The Gators couldn’t establish much inside because Egbunu again got in foul
trouble. Egbunu picked up his second foul at the 7:19 mark in the first half
and played just eight first-half minutes.
Like Florida, Georgia struggled from the field in the first half. But the
Bulldogs outscored the Gators 15-4 in second-chance points, and shot 40 percent
from 3-point range (4-10), the key to taking a 25-19 halftime lead.
The Bulldogs closed the half with a 7-1 run. Maten hit a 3-pointer to put the
Bulldogs up 21-18, then freshman Derek Ogbeide followed with an inside hook
shot to put Georgia up 23-18.
After Leon made one of two free throws for the Gators, Frazier made a baseline
jumper with 32 seconds left to put Georgia up 25-19 at halftime.
It was UF’s lowest scoring first half since trailing 30-19 at the half Jan. 26.
But White was encouraged the Gators had only three turnovers in the first half.
The Gators finished the game with an assist-to-turnover ratio of 10 to 6.
“The message was with our guys, we’re doing a lot of really good things,” White
said. “If we can just make a couple of shots. But if we let up defensively,
Georgia’s gonna score 70 and I’m afraid we’re not going to be capable of doing
that.”
FREE THROWS: Florida improved to 3-6 on the road this season. … Florida
announced Tuesday that its game Feb. 27 at LSU will tip at 8:30 p.m. and air on
ESPN.
