Big opportunity tonight. I feel like reaching the semis would be a nice boost to momentum after a slightly disappointing regular season. They are going to be well rested, but kinda glad we have our sea legs under us in the tournament already and it's their first game. They are beatable. Not sure we can go much further but this one we can win.
Last time, we lost at home, OT, after a lead to start the 4th. Quiet game from LC, not much at all from Reynolds. 55-27 rebound difference.
Please basketball gods: let UF win tonight. Let Correa go OFF. Let Dut hold her own in the post. Most of all...let Zippy have some hero moments.

Long way to go.... but if we win... it would be the first time in the semis since Carol I would think.
Gators last season leading scorer and pg kk deans transferred to ole miss and was their starting pg. she had a season ending injury earlier. A Visit with KK Deans: Florida's leading scorer explains why she chose to transfer to Coach Yo and the Rebels - The Rebel Walk
