There's a line out for this game, Xavier -3 (have to scroll past women's NCAA tournament and NBA G-League).

Go GATORS!

Is this our GAME THREAD or just a pre-game discussion thread?

 

Florida is 2-2 all time vs Xavier

Dec. 28, 1959 L 74-86 a neutral site loss in the Hurricane Classic.
Feb. 13, 2010 L 64-76
Dec. 31, 2010 W 71-67
Nov. 24, 2019 W 70-65 a neutral site win in the Charleston Classic

 

I like the trend.

 

Let's just make it the Game Thread too. Saves you the trouble . . . although I know you would have made one for us @Bazza

 

4-day wait? I recognize these are not regionals and they have to travel. Is 4-days standard and are the other 2nd round matchups scheduled as such?

 

Perfect - thank you, @ETGator !

Never hurts to add information to a thread title.

It's not like it costs extra!

 

Hopefully the extra time means Felder and Duruji will be good enough to offer some minutes of play.

 

That's what I was thinking!

 

I was at the 2010 loss attending with a sports coach from the Cincinnati area (High school tennis). Great guy, but RIP.

Always loved to watch X versus UC games. If you think we have a rivalry with FSU, Georgia, UK etc it is nothing like this.

 

Anybody know what their injuries are?

 

NIT: Florida vs Iona (Wednesday, 9 pm) - Florida Gators

That’s all the info I’ve seen with regards to Duruji’s and Felder’s injuries so far.

 

Eastern time zone or central time zone?

When is the next Kentucky thread?

 

The single most frustrating aspect of last night's game for me was the turnovers while we tried to inbound the ball. I remember it happened at least twice!

So maybe when we play our game with Xavier, it will be an opportunity for us to see if Coach Pinkins can get that single issue corrected.

Obviously there is more to improve on but this is something very measurable, IMHO, as well as something very critical.

thanks, as I live in Central time zone!
