Yep, so this game will be the #2 vs #3 teams in Florida going at it, I wonder if the gators can pull off the upset?

That really doesn't answer the question: What if they CAN'T get to the rim.

They are actually a decent shooting team too from 15' out.
They also pass the ball and work the defense to create open shots, it isn't one on one like a lot of teams do now days. They had like 14 assists on 20 fgs the other night or some crazy number (in today's game). They play "team" ball on offense and actually have good shooters.
They do not play the "mid-major" game of jacking up 3s to win. They are like an old power conference team from the mid 90s on offense, this is probably why they are so much fun to watch. Their coach lets them play.

Interesting, and good response.

They've had some "WOW" dunks and that is what every one is talking about because they are "WOW", but that isn't how they've won the games.
They're guys are scrappy, they are not "big", tall and quick, yes, but not muscled up. Florida should be able to dominate the board, but just because they come down with the ball does not mean they will keep it.
They killed G'town and SDSU with this, two guys would be around the rebounder and come away with a steal, then they are constantly looking for outlets for fastbreak opportunities, but they play smart and do not try to force anything such as bad layups, they will pull it back out and run the offense.
They had 21 assists on 31 FGs last night against SDSU. 15 assists on 21 FGs against G'town.

They are awesome.
271st in turnovers per game and 81st in assists per game.
149th in 3pt percentage
225 in FT percentage
168th in ATO percentage
They are 14th in points scored so there's that.

FGCU also has a great point guard in Brett Comer
Posted on 3/25/13 at 3:41 pm to tgr4ever
His ATO margin disagrees with the word great. He's ranked 108th.
Are 1-110 great point guards or just 1-108?
I know everyone is excited but it's blinding many.

People are talking about their play in the tourney, not about their stats over the season this is where you are confused.
G'Town and Gonzaga were suppose to be top 10 teams, not in the tourney...

Yes, better to use two games rather than a season's worth of data.
It was said that Comer was a great point guard. It's wasn't said that Comer was great in two games.
Perhaps he was great in two games. I saw an undisciplined guard running out of control. You probably saw controlled offensive prowess that will destroy the Gators. It is what it is.
I have zero worries about this game. We have the better players, better defense, better coach...but they do have the better obnoxious behavior on the court with their inner Hendo. There's that. CHICKEN DANCE!!!!! Arrrrrrrrr!!!

I dont think FGCU beating Florida should be considered a choke.
that team is legit.

We have one of the best perimeter defenders in the country in Scotty Wilbekin. They aren't going to have an offense.

You are saying they are legit based on two games or their entire body of work?
Do you just want to believe in Cinderella? If so, I get that.
