Bama loses 66-63.

I'd like to thank all that made this in-game thread possible--Me!

I'll thank you too. I just got home and read your account of the game. Sounds like there was ample opportunity for Bama to take this game, but couldn't pull through in the clutch.

Randolph made a big 3 pointer just before the half to get us within 2. We came out slow in the 2nd half and Florida took a 12 point lead. We made a run and got the game close with 8-10 minutes to go. We played toe to toe with them the rest of the way. What killed us was a foul on a 3 point shoot who made all 3 free throws. The next trip down FL hit a 3 pointer and was fouled. He missed the free throw but that was 6 quick points. We came back and made a very good game of it. We had a chance to tie the game with less than 20 seconds to go but  J Green only made 1 of 2 free throws. We had to foul and they hit both. Lacey got a good look at a 3 to tie but it hit the front of the rim.

J Green came to play today. It looked like he is not ready for his college days to end. We only hit 3 three's. Florida hit 10. I think we carry something with us from this game into the NCAA tournament.

They came up short but I'm proud of the fact that they didn't quit. Twice they were down by 12 points and fought their way back.

But not a surprise.  At least the team played well and competed throughout the game!

It is time to get past the JG era and get on to the CAG era. Look at the game stats for UF. That is what I expect next year with 3 or more guys in double digits each game. Spreading the scoring around so that  a one man slump never kills us. Things are moving in the right direction,-- have patience. No one anticipated the extent of turmoil this season, but this was never the year for making a national statement.

That foul was on JG.  Surprised me that an experienced senior player would make that kind of mistake late in the game.  Time for the JG era to end and CAG era to begin, indeed.
