Five takeaways from Florida’s close rematch win at Georgia Bulldogs

Here’s what Pat Dooley has to say following a too-close-for-comfort game against the Bulldogs in Athens.

Remember when Florida couldn’t win basketball games on the road?

Well, the Gators won again away from the friendly confines with a strong second-half performance and a big game from an unlikely source.

Freshman Thomas Haugh scored 17 points as Florida won for the seventh time in its last eight games and 10th straight time over Georgia.

This one was a battle with a final of 88-82 and the Gators are 18-7 and 8-4 in the SEC with the next game (at Alabama) suddenly becoming a huge one in the conference race.

The five takeaways today look at another win for the suddenly mighty Gators.
