Published: Jan. 22, 2020, 5:18 a.m.

Neil W. Blackmon (Saturday down South) and Eric Fawcett (Gator Country dot com) discuss Florida's narrow two point defeat Tuesday night in Baton Rouge. How Florida did enough on offense to win- but got lost defending LSU's guards and high slot ball screens. Plus, why offensive rebounding isn't  mostly about "Effort" or "Trying hard" and really is often about spacing and sometimes- perimeter and help defense. We'll also break down the adjustments Florida made to come back, and talk referees and free throw imbalance because Mike Nance is going to Mike Nance. Then (minute 27) we preview the Gators SEC-BIG XII challenge contest Saturday against No. 1 Baylor. We will discuss: - Why Scott Drew's Bears team is so good - The curious change in defense from the 1-1-3 to more man - Is Baylor's backcourt the best in America - Davion MItchell's defense vs. Andrew Nembhard - And how Florida can defend Baylor's pick and rolls. Enjoy!
