Having a week to stew on the UConn drubbing, the 6-4 Gators take on the 5-4 ranked Ohio Bobcats at the Tampa Ice Palace. BTW, I don't know what an "Amalie" arena is, but I refuse to refer to the Ice Palace as "Amalie Arena." The Tampa tip is Wednesday at 7:00pm and the game will be on ESPN2. The Bobcats did not have a week to rest, winning 81-79 on Sunday against Youngstown State. Statistically, these two teams resemble each other in many ways. Team....pts.....pts ag.....fg%.....stls Ohio......78.1....69.9........46.8.....6.1 FL.........78.3....69.6........46.0.....6.3 Pick the score, the MVG, and the Sog. Sog is rebounding difference between Bobcat's Dwight Wilson III (10 rbs/game) and Fudge (4.9/game) + Felder (3.7/game). My pick: Gators 83 Bobcats 74 Mvg Castleton Sog +1
Florida. 81 Ohio. 69 MVP. Richards SOG. -3 Hoping for a blowout, don’t know if the Bobcats will get the Gators juiced! Hope our shooting from three is better than the last game, Go Gators!
