MBB OGT: NCAA Tournament Championship -- (1) FLORIDA v (1) Houston -- April 7, 2025 -- 8:50 PM [CBS]

"Gator nation go crazy"
Gator nation behind him: "K. Bet." *Storms court*

 

Meh, stormed the court. Bush league. Act as if you have been there before...

I bet they had a blast. Wished I could have been there, although that would have put my bedtime even further behind schedule.

 

Not as stupid as Chris Weber calling a Time Out when Michigan didn’t have any and that let UNC win

 

Not 1 McDonald’s all American player on both teams

 

FWIW Ollie was there last night. He got a turn cutting down the nets. Didn't need the ladder.

 

I told several friends/family before the game that Will Richard needed to have a good game in order to win this one. I had a feeling that they would limit Clayton in this one. However, if you would have told me that Richard and Condon would score 30, I would have told you that we win this game going away. Kudos to Houston's D. What a game!

 

When I woke up ( fell asleep around 4, had to watch every replay on all sports channels, every interview..lol)
I had to check the score just to make sure I wasn't dreaming lol
Love our Gator Boys..they stayed hot!

 

Maybe that final shooter should’ve picked up ball for double dribble. They’d have a few seconds left to try to stop our inbound or foul us. If we hit 1 of 2 then they have one final play to tie it up.

 

You going up to Gainesville for the 1:30 celebration today?

 

I'm so proud of this team - Houston was a tough matchup and we matched that toughness, and we wore them down!

 

ESPN has tagged the Gators as Chompions. Love it.

 

No..have other things going on today

 

Now that we know the outcome, yes, but I think Houston is used to their guys getting loose balls. And he was smart to block out Clayton.

Had he picked it up and we successfully unbounded the ball, probably everyone blames him for not giving his teammates a shot.
