I was just about to ping you here......LOL

But you beat me.

Looks like this is the only thread on the game!

Hey, oxen -- sorry for those orange & blue posts on the 24 thread. heheh.

[cyn]

yeah, I was sure there'd be a thread going tonight!

course I can't type AND watch and "whoohooo" all at the same time ... good to see you here. This is wonderful, a good night to be a gator!

[JulieRNR21]

GO GATORS GO!!!!!

[cyn]

now 68 - 53! good to get that margin back.

[cyn]

... with a minute and a half to play, wow, it's gone fast, these last few minutes. I was worried as we lost some of the margin earlier this half.

Congratulations to Florida Gators.....NCAA Champs

20. It's Florida's time

Arguably the state richest with athletic talent in America, it has never won a college basketball championship. There are scads of football titles strewn about the place, but nothing in hoops. It's time for the worshipers of the pointed ball to realize what can happen with the round one. Florida 65, UCLA 59.


Actual score: FLA 73 UCLA 57

Congratulations to Billy Donovan and all the FL Gators!

[cyn]

yes -- coach gave credit all around just now. I'm watching the highlights now, can't get enough of it! But time for bed.

Later, gators!

[JulieRNR21]

Now if we can help KH also win in 2006.....I'll be doubly happy!

Nite Nite......Sweet Dreams!

[elc]

Ah yes, 1996. Wasn't that the infamous do-over game?

[floriduh voter]

woo hoo!

[subterfuge]

Spurrier reminds me of Bobby Knight. If they had a personality contest there might not be a winner

I'll send you a hundred bucks if you're not a loser Bulldog or UT fan that got pissed at all the losing to the GATORS. I suppose you could also be a Kentucky, VAndy, South CArolina fan also. Your ridiculous comparison reveals your lack of intelligence.

[subterfuge]

Those assets were not very good on holding the lead. There are only 3 Florida players who carry the load when Humphrey is off his feed, and he will be tonight. Can you say "partytime". I think part of your impression of Florida's capabilities comes from too much watching of their games in an otherwise weak conference. Then, too, there's that NBA thing, and these guys know the NBA scouts are in the audience.

How is that crow tasting muawiyah? It appears everything I said came to pass, and everything YOU said was hogwash! Who was your pick to win it all? Duke? Ha! The Gators would have annihilated them!

[subterfuge]

There are a few people on ESPN who know what they are talking about but I dont consider this guy one of them

Well he was sure right on this particular team, eh? The GATORS dominated the entire tournament. The only team that gave them a decent game was Georgetown.

[muawiyah]

You still had Humphrey avoiding mixups under the nets. Why is that?

Having watched the entire game very carefully I'd suggest that if the referees had stopped play every time your young traveler shuffled his feet wrong or forgot to dribble the ball, we'd still be watching it 3 days later!

A correctly referred game would have put Florida out in the first round.
