After their last loss at TN, the Gators reeled off six consecutive SEC victories. Can they rebound in similar fashion against a hungry A&M squad that has lost its last three? This is the kind of game the Gators must win if they wish to be considered for a top seed. Tipoff is Saturday, March 1 at 8:30pm on SECn. Pick the score, the MVG, and the SoG which will be A&M made 3pt baskets. GA made 10 in their win against FL. The Aggies avg 6.9 made 3s/game. The winner(s) shall earn 2pts, a place in the Hall of Victory, and a delicious mug of ale should we ever meet in person. Gators 86 Aggies 68 Mvg Clayton Sog 7
If we can keep Texas A&M off their offensive glass we blow them out with fast breaks. They send four to the offensive glass a lot but they are very good at getting second, third and even fourth shots per possession. That is the key to the game. I think we do a good job defensive rebounding. Condon is a beast. UF 85 Aggies 70 MVG Condon for getting rebounds. He may not be the algorithm winner but if he can control the defensive glass we win easily SOG 6
Gators. 84 Aggies. 78 MVG. Martin SOG. 8 I guess we find out if we are good or we are just another 4 to 6th seeded team. The Aggies beat Mizzou at their house Feb 8th. They are tough and they need this game bad. Are we going to lollygag in the first half? If we do, we could be looking at a second straight loss and dropping seeding for both SEC and NCAA tournaments. Let’s earn special seeds, Go Gators!
Tough situation for UF's seeding. A&M is on a 3 game slide and needs the "W". So glad UF is at home. As previously mentioned, I hope the players are fired up after the disaster in Athens. But I don't see a blowout, I see a very tough physical rock fight. UF 74 tamu 68 MVG Martin 7
SOG should be how many ft attempts Wade Taylor gets. He’s had like 30 attempts the last two games. Another interesting point is whenever Wilcher is on the floor he will be jacking threes. His percentage of three point attempts is over 90 percent of all fg attempts. Gators 72 A&M 65 MVG Richard SOG 5
These will be interesting to monitor. Thanks for the heads up. I'm always open to suggestions if someone has an idea for a SoG and gets it to me before the thread goes live.
