Well.. Florida dropped out of the rankings after like a week and a half.. so, yeah they aren't very good right now.
It is early in the season. Who worries about rankings now. Evidently you do. It means nothing now. Fla has all the pieces and will be a hand full in the SEC this year.

Am I missing something? Having a half time lead is not an accomplishment. Now if this was reverse psychology to put the old upset curse on them then we’ll played.

Blackshear isn't **** compared to the new and improved junior Nick Richards and you can take that to the the bank! Blackshear had a choice he had 1 year and a chance to work hard everyday and go pro he chose to go play for White over John freaking Calipari how stupid was that decision?

Besides blackshear, florida is young like us. It's so early in the year ... blackshear has to get uses to his teammates as well. Florida will be a force come January and forward as will we.

That's now how this works.

You don't get to just assume a 14-loss Florida team is all the sudden good. Your team was hot dog **** last year, and adding Tre Mann and KB doesn't make them top5.

And apparently, the rest of the nation agrees.

Sorry, Florida fan.

Blackshear is good enough to play at UK as was Reid Travis. But there’s also a reason you are a grad transfer instead of being in the NBA!
What does that have to do with anything? After Florida's first game people were saying Florida was over rated and not very good and that they were glad Blackshear did not come to UK, That he was not good enough. You can't judge a player or a team based on how they play in one game, especially this early in the year.

Dude you’ve lost to some bad teams already and not even in top 25 now
Dude I am a UK fan. Yes we lost to Evansville but people on here overreact to a loss or a victory this early in the year. The team, including Florida needs time to mesh. Florida has all the pieces to be a really good team and we will have to play our best to beat them.

You have two national titles.

please stop acting like you’re Wooden UCLA because you have a halftime lead over a ranked team.

My issue with Florida has ZERO to do with KB (who I still think will be a great player for them) and EVERYTHING to do with the fact that they lost 7 players from a 14-loss team last year.

Only Kentucky gets a top rank with that type of turnover, and it's because we bring in a **** ton of recruits.. not just Scottie Lewis and a bunch of multi-year recruits.

Florida had no business being top10.

Also, Florida has a bigger home court advantage in this game than Kentucky has had at Rupp all year. This 100% feels like it's being played in the central Florida.

UF was what, 8th in the league last year and lost their 2 best players and best defender/rebounder. I'll believe they're a legit contender when I see it.

HUH ? what is this thread about ? UF is a good team but nothing special . They are beating a very overrated X team and have lost 2 games and will lose IMO 9-10 for the season . I do think they beat us in Gville though for one of our 3 more losses but don't understand the need for this thread.

Also give me Richards over Blackshear this season as his numbers are similar but he plays great D.

UF is the 4th best team in the league right now . It is UK UT AU and then UF . And I can't believe UT is as good as they are but I have watched them 3 times and they are.

So does that mean kentucky is.. top5? Top3?

Florida being given a lot of leeway by fans who would never give us that sort of benefit of the doubt. This team already has two loses and it's not even Thanksgiving.. thats not a top25 team.

I dont care about "well they could be a final4 team".. yeah so could like 40 teams right now

Kick ball.. a few suspect OOB calls.. hacks underneath.. Xavier players are pissed and they have every right to be.

Unfortunately it wouldnt look good for a "top5" team to lose 3 this early.

It cracks me up.Some of the same posters who never say anything good about UK praise Florida.
I rarely say anything negative about UK. The only negative thing I have said is that Haggas has been making too many turnover and that was recently. He improved in that area in the last game.

Uh when? In 3 weeks? Yeah maybe.

They still have to work on getting ranked again lol.

And lmfao.. almost lost to Xavier, which is not the Xavier weve come to know over thr last decade..
I hope they are never ranked. What is frustrating is some posters on here talk bad about a player when he goes somewhere else and if UK loses a game the sky is falling. Cal can't coach after losing to Evansville. Florida is no good after losing a game, etc. It get ridiculous sometimes.

Florida will be a very good team in due time. They are learning to play together. Blackshear, Mann, Glover, Jitoboh, Payne, and Lewis are all new to the roster this year. It will take time for them to put it all together with Nemhard, Locke, and Johnson. They just beat a solid Xavier team and have only been together for a couple of months.
