25 assists to 6 turnovers

That is ridiculous.

Lot of credit to Butler.

A little credit to Perry who is giving us nice minutes as a backup.

Whole teams deserves credit, honestly. That’s a crazy number vs. a top 10 opponent.
This is what you get when you run an offense that for the most part everyone knows what the other 4 are supposed to do.
 
And a team that was supposed to give us fits on defense.

And they did for 10 minutes.

Then it was game on!!
What are you talking about? They hung 100 on us in rupp. We have to fix our defense. Period. This team has the hallmark of an early NCAA out. Great offense when the 3s are falling. Defense not good enough to compensate when they aren’t.

They really don’t have the hallmarks of an early out. Play like they did vs. OSU, then yeah. But they mostly have played much better than that.

They’ve played like a team likely to earn a good seed and take care of business in round 1.

Round two will be tough on everyone, but I like our chances. Will be tough for most teams to turn it around in 48 hours and figure out how to guard us.
 
after the first 10, we put on a masters class on offense. Defense still little concerning, but UF has a formidable guard trio, and bigs who can do a lot.
Blue, I agree with you to a point. After watching several minutes of the UT-Ark game, I watched UT guards who are very good, drive in the lane and end up with a fade away jump shot that did not go in. Announcers even said they were very tough shots.
Against us today, the Florida guards made several fade away or what I would call, "bail me out Holy Jesus" shots and it seemed every one of them went in.
Had the odds evened out just a little, our score would have been much different. I heard one of the announcers on ESPN say "I want to point out what will not be talked about much but Florida did miss 11 free throws". Yeah they did but they also shot 11 more than we did.
Overall, our defense wasn't that bad when you consider how many of those fade aways they made.

Read the thread. I’m talking about the offense against a team that was supposed to test our offense.

They did for 10 minutes then we put on a clinic.

If you are looking to whine about something there’s other threads and posters ready to join you.

The defense was not bad either. The defensive rebounding was bad.

But if you want to whine after a win then knock yourself out.
 
25 to 6 will win a lot of basketball games. I saw two very talented teams today go toe to toe against each other at a fast pace. I am glad the Cats had the home court that helped. Both teams shot the ball really well. The Gators won the battle on the boards and 2nd chance points against the Cats won the turnover and fast break points and ultimately won the game.
