This is a game which many Gator fans have been looking forward to for quite some time and rightfully so. The Missouri Tigers will be taking on Florida in front of a sold out O-Dome crowd Saturday afternoon. They (the Tigers) will be without the services of their #1 scorer, Laurence Bowers, who is suffering from a knee injury and is slated to miss the game. This is going to make a tough task even harder for the visitors as they were already listed at13.5 point underdogs. If the Gators can pull this one out then they will have defeated two good teams within a 3 day period and it will further strengthen their RPI.

I think it is fair to say the Gators could do a repeat of what they have been doing the last few games and that is jump out to an early lead then build on it. Except for a late game lapse the team handled the, currently ranked 7th, Arizona Wildcats pretty roughly and did so on the road. In fact except for those last couple of minutes and the no-show at K-State this team has been pretty persistent this year and has shown the capabilities to totally dominate an opponent. As I looked back at the scores, other than the two losses, the closest another team has come this season is UCF at 13 points. With this said they guys are playing on a short 2 day turnaround and playing a quality foe who would like nothing better than to upset Florida on its own home court.

There will be a lot of people at the game but for those who won't be there, or will, join us in the game thread tomorrow as we follow the team in their quest for a 4th straight SEC victory.

Go Gators!!!!!!!

Wow on the Italian Alps. I have watched a UF game or two from Europe.

When I was in Europe for a year during graduate school, I could barely get scores in Charlie Pell's first season. It is amazing to watch UF games live there now.

Fantastic start for the Gators this first half--offensively and defensively.

Aside from a few times where we were being a bit too cute with the ball and committed needless turnovers, this has been an impressive opening period.

In case you're wondering what some UK writers think of the game (even though you're probably not):

Matt Jones ‏@MattJonesCBB

Florida is really good.

Kyle Tucker ‏@KyleTucker_CJ

Wasn't sold on Florida. Am now, out of fear. Don't want a pistol-whipping like Texas A&M and Mizzou have taken this week. Mercy.

Cal made an actual comment recently saying this UK team can't "whomp on people"...

If it is the play I think you are talking about, the direction and speed of the ball made me and the referee apparently think Murphy slapped it out of his hands as he was about to throw it up the court.

I made mention of Murphy looking tired and Patric kind of looked that way too. I wonder if short turnarounds are harder on big guys than the smaller ones. I know years ago I recall talking to some other people about Schintzius and a former coach made a statement along the line of big guys like him having a harder time with fatigue.

Just talking about this with someone yesterday. Guards don't feed him enough, but when they do, he almost NEVER kicks it out. Always looks to score. Maybe he doesn't think he is ever going to get another chance. But maybe the guards don't pass it to him because they don't think they will see it again.

I wish Billy would rotate one or two from the bench for a while instead of waiting til 2 mins and putting them all in and letting the other team score a bunch. Seems better for the subs to play with some of the starters.

Absolutely true Apex - absolutely true.

This is Billy D's one weakness - he used to do that when he first started, but then, roughly 2002 or so, he stopped.

Pat is willing to kick it back out. He may force it a bit from time to time, but I want him looking to score when he gets it in the post.

Despite being ranked 17th, we still held Mo. to our season average of points allowed. One of the most telling stats of the game was Mo. missed 35 shots but only got 3 offensive rebounds. We just didn't allow multiple shots per possession.

Wow...all you can really say.

Dominating from the tip-off to the finish...and you can tell Pelphrey's ripping into the backups paid dividends today: they looked hungry and committed to playing strong on both ends of the court--coming up with big steals, solid defense, and offensive production too. Loved having Kurtz grab a bucket off a tough shot--and seeing Ogbueze, Walker, Graham, and Frazier playing well together too.

Hard to pick out a player from the starters who was the "best" since they all played well...one of the most impressive team performances we've seen in awhile.

I'm most concerned with mentally handling end of game situations when it's tight. We've been pretty shaky being strong with the ball under pressure. I'd like some more experience in that scenario, but certainly not going to complain about blowing teams out.

Probably ESPN 3.

Is Scotty playing his way into an NBA opportunity down the line?
Has decent PG size for NBA, a plus defender, shot is decent.

Don't see him as a starter, but i could see him as a NBA bench player for a few years---especially if his court vision and passing improves.

I truly think he will be given a chance and even could get drafted.

Bilas was saying how he was most impressed by the gators in this game. nothing but accolades. always like bilas's assessments. knows the game. praises when we play well, will critique when we're not doing that well too. loves, LOVES the game of college basketball. so articulate too.

SW is improving by leaps and bounds. I'm most impressed by the team not relying so much on the 3 in this game, though Mizz D was abysmal for most of the game.

Pat is willing to kick it back out. He may force it a bit from time to time, but I want him looking to score when he gets it in the post.

Agreed, last year he was too quick to kick it back out, I like how he is powering it up this year

Possibly. There were a lot of scouts at the game, and a lot of them came to see Phil Pressey. What they got to see was Wilbekin totally dominate him.

While Pressey had a horrible stat line for the game I was very impressed with his talent. He was way faster than anyone else on the floor. I think that he will blossom with better players around him in the NBA.

Scotty had probably the best overall game I have ever seen him play. Totally awesome. If he makes a habit of playing like that he will get some attention.

I wouldn't consider it odd, especially if the shoes were worn by a player from the northeast.

Our first Grandbaby, William, born in July. :grin: Our daughter dresses him in Gator attire often and uses a Gator blanket on the floor for him to play on (although, since he's crawling and starting to try to walk, that's not going to last much longer).
