Tickets start at $18 for Upper GA and go to $64 for Lower Center Court.

Great deal to see the best team in the country compared to the outrageous prices in the O’Dome

If you want to sit behind the Gator Bench, sit in Section 114.

After seeing film review of the South Carolina game I noticed how often players were late or never to their assignments or gaps, overly communicating before the snap and after, total confussion.

Reminded me of when Austin Armstrong's defense was failing and his mentor Ron Roberts "simplified" the defense and the rest of the season was far more successful.

We need that now. We can't know how good/bad our defense is when they don't even know where the hell they're supposed to be or what to do...

Love this!

most have probably already seen this video but just in case you haven't it's a good breakdown by the film guy of our defense against South Carolina.

TLDW: our defense doesn't look very confident right now

edit: no clue who the "Lord
Gators" are but I can't change it

Tramell Jones is currently taking QB1 reps with Aaron Philo currently sidelined in practice according to Zach Abolverdi of GatorsOnline

Does anyone else think he's not going to play? I feel like with an update like this he's not going to play.

Here is my prediction on the game this weekend. True to Gators fashion the past 15 years of no consistency of winning when we think we lose and losing when we think we will blow them out. This, and the fact Manning is like a Gator, highly overrated and no consistency. I predict we when win. Leaving everyone scratching their head even more on how we won and why Manning sucks so bad at times. 27-24 Gators!

Only down by 7 at half and Sumrall said, “It looked like a dog died at the half in the locker,” which is wild because you’re only down 7 and you’re still in the game.

Y’all keep cookin’, Gator Nation is passionate and holds all to a high standard, as it should be. We show up, we are loud and we are heard, I’d rather have that than empty stands. But make no mistake, we are with you 100%. Stay strong, stay focused, our greatness is inevitable. Go Gata 🟠🔵🐊🐊🐊

SEC Tournament

SEC Tournament

I looked over it and I was pretty pleased. Out of conference it’s not nearly as difficult as what it was last season. The only 2 tough games are Miami and Duke. Miami should be a win for the Gators as they are not quite on Florida’s level which helps the resume. Duke is more of a 50-50 game, regardless of the outcome it won’t affect our seeding much negatively even if it’s a loss. Either way, that game should help to prepare the Gators to get back into tournament form as we saw Michigan lose to Duke last season but then went on to win the title.

As for conference play, UK and Vandy are both at home. For whatever reason, we often seem to struggle against those 2 schools so having home court will be great. Bama, Tennessee, and Texas on the road won’t be easy, but we’ve shown ourselves to be a terrific away team and we have a major advantage in the paint against those 3 teams. As long as we don’t drop too many big road games, we should still be in an excellent position to win the SEC and get a number 1 seed again.

Am I just doing this wrong? why are single basketball game tickets the same price as football tickets lol. they’re all $200+/e on Ticketmaster.

is it better to wait until closer to buy them? this seems wild. IK we are legit contenders but damn.

Well, it's Monday. Again.

The whole offensive gameplan revolved around VB3. Opposing defenses had to account their best defensive player on him and game-planned around stopping VB3. Any given play VB3 could take a screen or jetsweep for a touchdown. Shifts/Motions/Sweeps/Corner Routes/ Posts/ and vertical threats with VB3 are now all out the window. There is a reason why the UF offense has stalled the last 2 games.

No VB3 for the last 2 games has severely hampered Buster Faulkers offensive scheme.

• This has caused teams like USCe/Mizzou to stack the box on Florida's running game.
• It also meant they could put their best defensive corners on DWilson or Singleton. That's why Stockton is seeing so many targets.

Without VB3...the chance to win games is heavily reduced against the better SEC opponents.

UF fans need to realize this is year 1 of a turn-around after 4 terrible years of Billy Ball. These are all still Billy's leftovers.

There is no question that the last two games have been painful at best and a shuddering return to the past at worst. But the take above helps keeps things in perspective.

Sumrall has started off strong and hit the brick wall of SEC reality. Let's give him some time to get his system and his players in place and the judge him as a HC. The very fact that we sit at 4 wins today with a win over Ole Miss is something we didn't expect when he was hired.

Stand by the Gators, and things will turn around. Go Gators!

Duke and Florida are the clear top two with a gap with the rest.

I want to share this clip from the post game presser Saturday, to discuss with our Gator community here why we shouldn’t jump so quick for Sumrall’s head. Sumrall never hyped our team. He has said every week since week 1 if we don’t improve we will get exposed. Every time a reporter would ask about if we were good, or back, or if the “beast was awake” Sumrall would always, in a professional way, say hell no. Obviously a lot of the frustration in the fan base is understandable, we’ve watched mediocre/bad football a few years in a row. We still won those 4 games quite decisively. I respect that Sumrall takes the head responsibility as he is the head coach, but you guys don’t seriously blame him for the terrible secondary play, bad tackling, lack of effort, and o line duds do you? Maybe in some larger picture way, but I mean let’s face facts, he doesn’t call our offense Buster does. He didn’t go on a limb and bring in Philo, Buster recommended him. Defensively Brad White runs our schemes and calls our plays. I would say coordinators should be in the sights of what could be lacking especially that secondary boy are they bad. Lastly, can we really blame Sumrall for what seems to be such a lack of effort from this team? He said himself he’s been a bit rattled since Ole Miss. Seems to me players got a bit on their shoulders and got punched in the mouth now they don’t know what to do. We had a player celebrate a tackle for a loss while we were down 18😅I mean come on man are we serious? I just can’t put that on coaches. All in all, what I’m trying to say is give the man a couple years guys. I know we want to win now, hell, I want to win now, but we gotta understand it don’t work that way. And we didn’t come off a season that would’ve given us the thought we could do anything this year anyway. Remember guys, 4-0 was our best case scenario going into Missouri and we did that. We’ve hit a stumble, still a lot of season left though. Let’s give him a full off season and into next year before you guys decide you want his head on a stake. Happy Sunday! Go Gata!!🐊

Our first 2 SEC games are hard to reconcile with the last 2 games. Caveat: it’s hard to accurately judge in the first year. Lost 32 players to the portal from last year and brought in the same # of transfers plus 20 high school recruits. So about 60 guys came back and 52 are new.

Still, it’s interesting how it seems like Faulkner’s creative magic evaporated so quickly. Losing VB III shouldn’t take an above average offense to completely ineffective, should it?

Brad White’s D has been mostly embarrassing bad. The CBs are poor and we may not have much talent on the D line, but Brad was Sumrall’s first choice for DC. He’s making too much $$ to be this bad. It’s definitely too early, but if it doesn’t improve next year (or ugh year 3), Sumrall’s willingness to fire his friends could be telling. Sumrall knows better than we how good the position coaches are, and maybe having bad players at underperforming positions keeps good coaches around for year 2. Still, keeping coaches, especially a DC, even a year too long would give off major Stricklin and Napier vibes.

As an aside, I maintain Strick should have been fired after not firing Napier after his second year. Giving him 4 years was inexcusable.

The final 4 games this year look A LOT different than they did 2 weeks ago: Oklahoma, at Kentucky, Vanderbilt, and at Florida State. None of those are sure-fire wins. On the flip side, we could win 3 or all of them, and we usually play UGA tough. To win 7-8 games, the Gators need to coach and play a hell of a lot better. Hopefully the staff will do great things in the last half of the season.
