Florida Gators forge their own identity
Whether they were plopped on an oversized sofa in the confines of their own home or tightly squeezed into the bleachers of the O’Connell Center amongst the rest of the rowdy reptiles, the giddy feeling many Gators fans felt as the game clock met its expiration last Saturday was hardly solitary.
The Gators appear to be for real.
The verve in which fans chanted “It’s great, to be, a Florida Gator” as the exuberant crowd filed out of the O’Dome, was not just a simple exclamation of school pride after beating — err, destroying Missouri 83-52 — the only other team in the SEC ranked at the time, but also the realization that this Florida team may just be the best basketball team in the country.
