For the first time in this conference season, Florida’s men’s basketball team finally had a game where its fans could relax a little.
The Gators (now 12-8 and 5-3 in the SEC) destroyed South Carolina 81-60 for the Gators’ fifth win in the last six games. There was no point where fans had any fear when it came to who was in control of this one.
South Carolina is now 8-12 under new coach Lamont Paris and 1-6 in the SEC (with the only win coming at Rupp Arena, so go figure).
Florida putting what has been an elite defense against an offense that has struggled all year and the result was somewhat predictable.
