    I was close. It's UF -4 as of rthis morning.

    Going to be a full house. 20,000ish fans. Like an NCAA playoff game or a big SEC game in a big arena.

    If this team plays smart basketball, I believe they will beat UNC comfortably (double digits). We've had such big leads in most games that when we force dumb shots early in the shot clock or make lazy entry passes that get stolen and take other unnecessary risks and waste possessions, it doesn't matter much in the moment. Against a good team in a tight game, though, and it can cost us. If we value the ball, limit turnovers and take good shots (i.e., don't beat ourselves), we will be fine.

    It's about PROVING the ranking not "wow look at our ranking."

    That does look cool. Horrible red and black though. I hope it makes us angry.

    I think the red we see is just reflection from the lights.

    What a game. I can't post my pictures because they are too high quality. Glad to see Florida get that win with a hostile crowd.
