Florida Gators Analysis

Florida Gators, with head coach Todd Golden, are 2-1 so far with their only loss to Virginia. The team lost All-SEC center Colin (16ppg) to a broken hand in February and went on to lose 3 straight games including one in overtime to Mississippi State. In their last game against Florida A&M, the Gators won 89-68 but struggled at the start being 1-of-10 from the field. Florida's power ranking is 121 and they have an average of 81.50 points per game and 73 points conceded per game. On offense they are ranked 88 for field goals, 332 for free throws and 202 for three pointers. Defensively, they are at 59 for free throws, 258 for field goals and 278 for three pointers.

FSU Solidifies Position for Victory Despite Challenges Last Season

After the departures of three players and an injury to a key player, Hamilton's team at FSU faced significant challenges last season. Despite these obstacles, the Seminoles have put themselves in a favorable position through the addition of Green who provides size and length which will cause opponents difficulty scoring in the paint. Furthermore, Watkins has proven himself a two-way player through his 2.0 steals per game in the VCU system, one that prizes defense. All considered, FSU is a strong pick to win.
