Disappointing Gators blasted at home by FSU- again

Published: Nov. 11, 2019, 3:37 p.m.

This was supposed to be the year Florida ended its bizarre, frustrating 5 game losing streak to Florida State in basketball.  The Gators had the more talented roster, the All-America grad transfer, the top 10 recruiting class, and a sold out Exactech Arena behind them. This game should have been different.  Instead, the game played out like the horror shows of the last 3 seasons, with FSU's length, elite athleticism and endless supply of bigs and wings overwhelming the Gators, breaking a tight halftime game open to win comfortably by 12.  Eric Fawcett (Gator Country) and Neil W. Blackmon (Saturday Down South) on what went wrong: - A bad plan from Mike White - An offense that isn't playing to Florida's strengths - A defense that wilted in the second half -Another home loss to an unranked foe. It's a long season, but this is a tough one. Plus, listener questions and frustrated tweets.
