Science Friction Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Assuming you (the Gators) get past UCONN, who would you prefer to face in the title game and why? You have beaten UK three times. Are you confident you can handle them a fourth time? Or do you want UW, one of only two teams to beat you this year? That way, on the road to the title, you get revenge for your only two losses. Who do you want to play more Monday night for the big trophy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Getslow Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Florida just edged out the Cats by a point in the SEC Championship. And UK is seemingly playing better by the day. If I'm Donovan, the last thing I want is another game with Kentucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Schue Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 If Donovan is smart, he wants no part of another Kentucky matchup. Honestly though, I think they'll struggle to get past UConn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColonelCrazy Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Kentucky could have easily won the first matchup in Lexington but faltered down the stretch. The next two matchups were all Florida for most of the game, then Kentucky stormed back to cut it close. Kentucky did not play well in either of the latter two games. If I'm Florida, I don't want to play Kentucky again. Way too tough to beat a team four times in one season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UKMustangFan Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 If Donovan is smart, he wants no part of another Kentucky matchup. Honestly though, I think they'll struggle to get past UConn. Agreed. This is the first time since the 1st meeting between these two teams that the Gators have been outmatched in the backcourt. Don't think UConn is a good matchup for the Gators at all.

Hatz Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Cue to Rex Chapman nodding his head grimly as he recalls the great Ricky Blanton. True, except Rex wasn't on that team or they might have beaten LSU 4 times. :thumb: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randy Parker Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Don Redden was the Cat killer if I remember correctly. Both. Don Redden had 15 & 8. Ricky Blanton had 12 & 8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AverageJoesGym Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Cue to Rex Chapman nodding his head grimly as he recalls the great Ricky Blanton.\ I think maybe you meant Ed Davender, Roger Harden, Kenny Walker, Winston Bennett or James Blackmon. Redden and Blanton killed the Cats that day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRCW Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Both. Don Redden had 15 & 8. Ricky Blanton had 12 & 8. And oddly enough both are dead now I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gametime Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Sleeping on UConn is a bad idea. They are defending at an elite level right now and will have the best player on the floor. If Daniels is playing like he has been of late, they might have the two best players on the floor... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
