    I thought AU was toast at turn(+9) Survived w/ -5 on last 9.

    Crap luck for Koivun in indiv play.. 1 back last hole, 2nd shot hits flag bounces in bunker.. oops.

    I felt a little bad for the GT guy in lead, with a 6 on that par 3. looked to have doomed it for he & team,, but it all worked out I guess.

    I thought Oh St was in trouble....6 holes to go on that back nine. Unbelievably tough finish

    yep I was considering them the 'safety net' finishing on back. Like surely theyl keep falling, didnt happen.

    They were 5 shots better on back than they were front..crazy.

    Dang, Gators played holes 5 & 6 at 5 under, then finished 7, 8, & 9 at 7 over.
    Lots of new faces this season and they got thrown into some pressure situations.
    Good season Gators, better luck next year.

    Last few holes were disappointing. But given what we lost off of last year, and the fact that we were ranked 17th going into post season, kinda hard to be upset with 11th. Good year overall.

    Yeah, the disappointment is being close and having it in your control and then giving it back on that last 3 holes.
    Kress didn't have the year we needed and didn't really take the next step, Dubois had a poor season but played pretty well here at the end, Gilligan had a nice season but struggled at times late, Bell flashes elite at times but then can implode at others, Turner is a future star.
    Only lose Dubois from that 5, so next year they should be ranked pretty high preseason.....nice if they can add a portal stud into the mix. Two signess are coming in, one from New Zealand looks like he could be a contributor. Poulter had a few flashes early in the year and then disappeared. Should be some comp for a slot in the lineup.....would think Gilligan, Turner, Bell, and probably Kress are solid 4

    We had the 10th ranked class with only two guys, so solid talent coming in. We are in good shape.

    Illinois was dominant in stroke play, GT barely sneaks in. GT wins that QF match....the one UF likely could have been in
    FSU edges UNC
    Vandy vs Oh St and Aub vs Virginia are still going and close

    Both semis are tight
    GT leads FSU 3-2 halfway thru back nine....GT is 2 up in the 3 matches they lead so FSU needs to rebound fast
    Aub and OSU are 2-2-1.....all the leads are 1 up except for one OSU lead is 3 up......they are about halfway thru so lot of golf left

    GT wins 2 matches comfortable, FSU wins one same fashion, FSU also 2 up with 2 to play in another
    The deciding match had GT 3 up at one point, FSU went 1 up late before GT tied it again on 18....so extra holes will decide this one

    Oh St 2 up in 2 matches, Aub 1 up in 2 matches, 1 tied

    Great afternoon of golf

    FSU wins in 19 holes

    Aub down 1-0 but leads in 2 of the 3 remaining matches. 1 up in 2 of them but it's late so they look good

    Koivun redeemed himself after blowing 2 shot lead w/ 2 to play. I really thought he would make the bird on 1st p-off hole, but pressure got to him, didnt hit it. Then got a break from tv tower, but he was owed one. Kid plays fast , makes me nervous..lol
