Official Final: Florida-78 vs Air Force-61, Saturday, 4:30 PM, FSN
The Gators return to the court after lackluster showing at KSU, and a subsequent loss, which saw Coach Donovan questioning the effort put forth by by some of the players. Coach wasn't alone in this assessment as many of our fans were left wondering where the team that look so dominant just a few weeks ago disappeared to. If the team is going to have a good season and make a serious run in the post-season then it is going to require a better effort than what we saw in the last game.
Next up is the Orange Bowl Classic in Sunrise Fl. where the team will face the 8-2 Air Force Falcons. Although the Falcons haven't notched a win over any ranked team they did play a 11-1 Wichita State team very close so the guys cannot afford another let down like the last one.
Here's hoping we see a much more focused team come tomorrow and a beginning to another winning streak.

The AFA also has some height for an academy team. They have a 6'10" guy and a couple of 6'7"/6'6" guys in their rotation.

If we get off to a good start this should be over by halftime, if we stumble around it could be interesting into the last 10 minutes

Just not feeling anything with this team the last few games. Something is wrong.

Get your crap together Gators. No excuse for this level of play with the talent we have this season.
