MBB OGT: #12 Texas A&M at #3 FLORIDA -- March 1, 2025 -- 8:30 PM [SECN]

They got 13 tries at FT
We got 6

 

yep, total bailout call. his whole purpose was to draw a foul, that shouldn't be considered a basketball play - like when players kick out their legs on jumpshots just to draw a foul

 

Chiny and Condo with 2 fouls apiece
Tam has only 1 player with 2 fouls

 

still the only SEC team that doesn't get home cooking

 

Florida with 12 assists (4 turnovers), A&M with only 2 (8 turnovers). UF on a 35-18 run since A&M went up 16-10.

 

Cudda been 16-20pts

 

I want us to go on a big run to start the 2nd half

 

Rebounding even, points in the paint even. 10 fouls on us, 8 of them. Our bigs committed some dumb fouls. Reuben had 2 real early and he only played 3 minutes. That Payne guy for them is excellent and he's quicker than any of our bigs. They missed 6 free throws, which helps us a lot. The big difference I see is that we had 12 assists, they only had 2. Also, we only had 4 turnovers, they had 8. We're passing it really well and so far have been hitting a high percentage of open 3's. I wish we would go inside more, though, and take it to their bigs like they have been doing to ours. Clayton is only 1-6, but everybody else has shot it well. Aggies are a tough, hard-nosed team and we're going to have to match their intensity the 2nd half to get the win.

 

Extremely physical game here. Tammy gets a lot of foul calls after they initiate the contact.

 

Texas A&M leads the nation in offensive rebounding. They get a lot of 2nd chance points and normally get in the 1-1 ealy in each half because they attack the basket so well and force the refs to make calls on physical plays at the rim. We've handled it better than most teams, but I give the Agggies credit for doing what they do.

 

Richard starts the 2nd half with a trey. Then comes back and hits another one.

 

Back to back 3s from Will

 

Richard getting into the action from 3 now. If Clayton hit that 3 the crowd would have went nuts.

 

Payne used his forearm to push our guy

 

Payne is working us over like CMB did at USC. Dude is a baller.

 

Refs right on cue..fouls cause we were putting on a whipping

 

I think their entire team is tought to do that. Refs just don't call it on them. Ever.

 

Wade going Mark Sears. Or Pippen Jr.

 

foul shots keeping them in the game

 

From 17 down to 9
