The haven't advanced to the sweet 16 since 2000. They never seem to advance unless they get help from other teams knocking out the better seeds. This year is no different as they should advance today. Looking back this team relies on others doing the dirty work.

We beat Butler, Illinois, Duke, Oklahoma State, and North Carolina to get to the Finals in 2000. Not the easiest road. Better check your history.

Florida sucks, no denying they have a bad recent history of NCAA knock outs besides 2000. UNC was like a 8 or 9 that year by the way too

Would be surprised to see them win today

Florida playing very well. Easy win over LSU last weekend, before nipping South Carolina in the SEC championship. They whipped a good South Alabama team Thursday and so far, are handling Wisconsin-Milwaukee today.

They just had a bad crop of selfish players in recent years that only cared about the NBA. They didnt give 3 shits about how far their teams went just as long as they took most of the shots and got their stats up.

They got a better crop of guys that know how to play the game, move the ball and get others involved.

Why you hating on Florida?

Didnt Florida lose to South Alabama?

Florida does not play at home next week. Will lose next week. I like them, but they are just not good enough coming into the tournament. By the way, just so you know I am not just saying it for arguement..I live in Fl, I just don't see them taking care of business next week.

This team is playing as well as anyone in the tournament. I was not hating on Florida. I graduated a Gator. They will have to work a little harder for wins now. Give me S Alabama and Wisc Milw anyday over any two SEC conference teams.

Just got back from Jacksonville. (5 hour drive each way today from Fort Lauderdale) This is a different Gator team, they play like a team and they WILL beat either Georgetown or Ohio State. I hope it is Ohio State, from the fucking sorry Big Ten this year. What happened to Michigan State and Iowa???

I heard all the experts on this board say that Southern Alabama was going to beat the Gators. 26 point blowout.

Then I heard Wisconsin Green Bay, oops, I mean Wisconsin Cheap Beer Milwaukee had all 5th year seniors and they were no Cindarella. 22 point blowout.

Keep going against the Gators.

Still got my fingers crossed that they will meet Duke in the Final Four. I got the Gators to beat Duke in the finals.....looking like they are on a mission. Lets do this Gators!
