I haven't heard this mentioned anywhere but while this is the 4th time we've gone unbeaten at home in a season, never before have we beaten every opponent by double digits. Has any SEC team every done this? My guess is not, at least not in a season where you play more than a dozen games. Very impressive it is the way this team has protected its home court.

Uhhhh, didn't we win every game this year by double digits?? And didn't we lose every single digit game? See a pattern?

Winning every game by double digits is more impressive.

I just checked and I forgot that we lost by double digits to Arkansas. The other 4 losses were all 6 points or less.

Yep, we didn't get blown out once this season. Even against Arky, we fought back and lost by 11.

That tells me that we're a tough bunch and don't quit.

It tells me that our defense, sans the Arkansas game where our D was terrible, keeps us in every game. Now if we can get the defense and the offense clicking at the same time for 6 straight games...

Yep. Our defense keeps us in every game and when our offense clicks we blow people out. Just like our football team.

majorly noteworthy!

has been a joy to watch this team compete.

It really wasn't the defenses fault. Arkansas shot out of their dam minds that night.
They probably won't shoot like that for another 10 years...

When all is said and done, that night is a distant memory. It really means nothing. This isn't football, where one game in the regular season costs you a championship.

If more of our fans realized that this isn't football, their blood pressure and overall mental state would be much healthier.

I'm pretty sure his whole point was that we had an undefeated regular season and that we won all of THOSE games by double digits. I also believe he might be right about none of the other undefeated home seasons being all double digit wins.

And that loss was certainly much better than Michigan's loss to Penn State and Miami's loss to Wake Forest that they seemed to get a pass by the media.

Thanks for posting that. This team has played some great ball this year. Hopefully, the best is yet to come

Billy made a comment on the radio that this team has the most SEC wins in a regular season in school history. Obviously the league is down, but still a cool accomplishment.

gatorbogey · 03-07-2013, 08:06 AM

what's the point differential between halves for the gators this season? seems we toy around alot in the 1st half, then come out swingin' in the 2nd and 'go off'. seems like it is at least a 10 point difference.

REM08 · 03-07-2013, 09:00 AM

I checked and last year's UK team didn't even do this. That team didn't even do this if you take away the home games vs UNC and UL.

orlandogator · 03-07-2013, 09:12 AM

Arkansas shot 55% from 3's in that game when their average was 25% and they chucked alot of them. I dont care who you are, if a team gets on a streak like that and you struggle, it's just their night. Thats the outlier game this year.
