    Mike White's 11-3/1-0 Bullpups travel to Gainesville to take on the 7-7/0-2 Gators at Exactech Arena this Saturday, Jan 8 at 1pm. The game will be broadcast on SECn. This is a quintessential "must win" game for the Gators, who cannot afford an 0-3 conference start, let alone a loss to the coach who left for a rival.

    GA looks like a tough defensive team, but they don't shoot particularly well (knocking on wood). They also have played a pretty weak schedule. Sagarin ranks FL 53, with the 36th toughest schedule, and GA 90th / 318th ranked schedule. Can the Gators get a much needed conference win at home?

    Pick the score, the MVG, and the Sog. Sog is free throw differential. The Gators and Bulldogs average just about the same # of FTs/game, but Texas A&M shot six more than the Gators. Certainly the Gators can't get "homed" again by the refs?! What will be the FT difference in this one? (+3 means the Gators shoot three more FTs).

    My pick:
    Gators 68
    Dwags 64
    Mvg Castleton
    Sog +5

    We will get down by 12-15 points, but somehow come back and win by 1. At least that was the blueprint for our opponents during his time coaching for us. :p

    Georgia guards will continually drive it to the hoop
    Without anybody stopping them. Not a blueprint for Florida success!

    Stat of game should be which team has more 5 minute droughts without scoring a fg. I can't understand all these predictions of the Gators scoring in the high 60s and 70s. We haven't scored more than 63 in our last 8 games and only broke 60 twice. Georgia hasn't scored less than 65 all season and just put 76 on Auburn. CMW can coach some defense and he knows CCs weaknesses. I hope Golden can get his act together with this team and prove me wrong.
