Florida Vs. Tennessee Game Thread: Gators Seek Revenge In Shiny Duds

PrintTennessee Volunteers at Florida Gators, Feb 11, 2012 4:00 PM EST
One time, Florida went to Tennessee and lost a road game at a presumably bad team in January without being very competitive. Today, the Gators seek revenge on a newly Jarnell Stokes'd team in Gainesville — and Florida will be wearing Nike Hyper Elite Platinum uniforms that may spark some discussion.
I will be at the game and recapping it afterward.
Kickoff Time
4:00 p.m. Eastern
TV, Radio and Streaming Information
The game will be broadcast regionally on the SEC Network. You can also watch it streaming online through Watch ESPN. The radio broadcast will also be available on the Gator Radio Network or on Sirius 220 and XM 199.
What to Watch For
Patric Young had only a decent game in Knoxville, and will have a sizable task on his hands in Stokes, who has a strained wrist but is expected to play. Rocky Top Talk warns that the Vols are terrible on the road, which, uh, seems familiar. And Florida's three-point shooting was bad against Tennessee in the teams' first meeting, and even worse against Kentucky on Tuesday, so let's hope for a rebound in that respect.
Game Thread Guidelines
Try to remember that, despite how emotional watching a Gators game can be, there's no reason to be abusive. Rant, curse, or exult if you must, but keep the personal attacks to a minimum.
Furthermore, and I will stress this until I am blue in the face or until FlaGators admits that I'm right, comments with both a subject line and text are much easier to read when scrolling through a thread. Try to keep that in mind.

Uniform FAIL
Those are disgusting – I can barely watch….especially with Tennessee’s orange in there too!
In all kinds of weather...
Not again! We can’t get swept by Tenn. Looks like everyone has figured out Billy’s O take away the 3 and we suck! Smh

the problem is instead of the Gators playing today, some scrubs put on some old Ohio State uniforms from 1994 and took the floor instead.
Also, the kid wearing Erving Walker’s jersey is terrible. I saw him trip over a sprinkler head (apparently) at midcourt and turn it over to spark a 4 on 1 easy bucket for Tennessee.
Hopefully SOME good will come of this game in that we’ll never have to see these ridiculous uniforms again.

What happened to Patric? He used to be physical and dominant. Now he looks timid and shitty….
If I die, I forgive you, if I recover, we shall see.
He’s not going up with any authority anymore. Nor is he getting any defensive rebounds.
If I die, I forgive you, if I recover, we shall see.
Billy is too calm!
We need Boom down there right now to light some fires!

Nothing to be sad about. I’ve pulled the double post before, but never a triple.
Editor at Alligator Army.
I find more fault with Murphy.
Until a minute ago, he had as many rebounds as Erv. For a small team we needed and should expect more from him.
Agreed but I think we would be leaps and bounds better with physical pg who has size to defend. Oh and who doesn’t take idiotic 3s at the wrong time.
what they need is
a true center and/or power forward
murph isn’t strong enough or quick enough
this is a typical situation with billy
always an unbalanced team
we have too may small players
(every tennessee starter was as tall or taller than ours)
including time when erv was guarding his 6’5" counterpart
next year we have more guards coming in
need someone to make patrick better everyday in practice
and shore up interior, offense and defense
12 in 12, thank you very much
So...
I wasn’t able to watch it live. Probably a good thing.
In all kinds of weather we'll all stick together
