Florida is good. Their home court advantage is also superior to Rupp. Golden is more intimidating to refs and gets more calls. Ky played Pretty good minus the first 12 minutes but Florida was never in danger of losing this game.
Hard disagree. Saying a team is "good" just to play the cliche nice guy after a game is BS. They are garbage. At home, against a UK team down 3 starters, ref's on their side, and random good games from 2 trash backcourt players, etc. and still only won by single digits. Not impressed.
Or, maybe we are a pretty good team too?
Also saying their court is "superior" to Rupp is crazy. Get out of here.
I feel bad for the people that are going to have to watch Pope for a LONG time.

If Florida is garbage. Kentucky is sewage. It’s easy to get up on a team that you are better than and cruise the rest of the game. UK just did the same thing against a terrible Ole Miss team at Rupp. I think Florida is really good when their guards play like today. This team will at least make the E8. They play to hard and physical not to.
Who said anything about Pope? I'm saying all the people saying "iT cOuLd GeT UglY dOwN tHeRe" and "iT cOuLd bE a BlOwOut" are morons. This Florida team has an atrocious backcourt. Walter Clayton Jr and Elijah Martin aint saving them this year.I feel bad for the jacka$$es that are going to have to watch Pope for a LONG time.
Didn’t say their court, said their advantage. When has UK ever got the calls that Florida got today, I’ll answer that. Never
Not you. Was referring to the usuals that stumble into this bar only after a loss or between a loss and the next win when they vanish again.
Random, rare good games from a terrible backcourt isn't going to take them far in the tournament. If it weren't for their bigs all returning from last year they'd miss the tournament this year.
Florida is good. Defending National Champions, will be back in the Top-10 and will likely challenge for a Final Four.
Mark Pope needs players.

FL isn't last season good but they are pretty good.
Lost the first game of the year to Arizona by 6, Duke by 1, UConn by 4. Their worst loss was against Auburn by 9. Not let’s look at KYs worst losses this year.
Florida is playing about as good as any team in the country right now and is a legitimate threat to repeat. You could have saved a lot of typing if you just typed “I don’t know ball.”
Todd Golden is the better coach between him and Pope, and that will still be the case five years from now.
We've got a true Six-Seven guys (winning percentage).
It sucks. We're stuck with a mid coach for the forseeable future.

5 point game before intentional fouls, at home, fully healthy vs a team down 3 starters. Nah, I don't buy it at all.
Really?? it was a 5 point game before fouls at home against a team without 3 starters lmao yall are sucking some **** just grow a pair and tell it like it is. Florida is trash.
If they’re garbage then I guess we are super garbage.
I guess you missed the part about it being AT florida and Kentucky not having 3 of their top players.
They're a top 10 team right now at minimum. #5 on Kenpom with a top 15 defense and top 5 offense with the 4th hardest schedule in the country. #4 on Barttorvik with a top 12 offense and top 5 defense. #5 on EvanMiya. Currently #1 in the SEC. Margin of victory of 25 points per game over the last four before today.
Give me a break.
Solely because we are stuck with a HORRIBLE athlete director who is a complete, total moron in every facet of life.
Okay now take all of that and remember boogie fland and Xyavien Lee are their guards. Now picture them in the tournament and say all of that again.
What 3 starters are we missing? Please list them and how many games they have played in and started. So tired of seeing this down 3 starters nonsense.
We missed like 15 layups & they hit so many 3's that they normally don't make. The good news is, they have to come to Rupp next.
They lost at Duke in a one possession game and turned it over their last possession with a chance to win. Not many garbage teams go into Cameron and come that close to a W much less against a top 4 rated Duke team.
Maybe he was saying the call on there home court is much better for them, then the call we get on our home court is for us. That would be very true.
Bro, some of you need at least a 1/2 objective lens to look at this game through. For the first 12 minutes we were a turnover machine. And when you miss 15 shots around the rim (basically layups) you are going to nearly ALWAYS lose. That's not on Pope. He cant shoot layups for the team lol.
This is getting ridiculous around here dude lol.
Moral victories to Florida. “We have injuries” - a guy that was never part of the roster. This is the new one, we need JQ.
and on and on. Remember when we compared ourselves to the best?
“3 of their top players”
JQ - never part of the roster
Lowe - high volume shooting guard who can’t hit
Kam - absolutely no factor half the season.
Ah yes, the ole “it’s not the coaches fault the players he recruited aren’t good”.
It’s the worst take on here by far. I guess every coach who’s ever been fired for recruiting players who can’t hit layups has an excuse to stay on board.
Mark recruited every single on of those players who can’t hit layups. It’s 200% his issue.
It’s just excuses. This fanbase has turned into nothing but excuse makers. Drew Franklin even touched on the excuse making this week on KSR. The first two pope years people have used injuries as excuses for why they failed. You can’t just keep throwing out excuses every year or at some point, and we are right there at it, you’ve become Indiana.
