Guard play

Stroger guard opponent guard play will cause them fits.

Very similar to Kentucky, but they can score outside with more consistency.

Vanderbilt guards were a problem for them. I expect a team in their path to cause the same problem, for sure Houston.

I really thought they would win the title before that Vandy game and they may still do it. Having said that, I won't have them winning it in my bracket even though the Vandy game might have lit a fire. I might just end up taking Arizona.

Florida will have a game or two with subpar 3-pt shooting. If that happens against a good opponent, they definitely can be knocked off

I agree 100% ... their shooting has to be much better than it's been recently for them to win it all. They will run up against big teams that can match them pretty much inside, so it will boil down to guard play. If they win it, it will not surprise me. If they don't, it won't, either. We'll see ...

To me it's not so much a knock on UF but the fact that I think Arizona, Michigan, Duke and Houston are all also very good teams that are capable of cutting this down.

So the odds are against UF here.

Just the mere fact they drew the last 1 and might have to potentially go through THREE of those above teams to win a title. Two of those teams they happened to have already lost to.

I said early in the season Florida would miss Walter Clayton.
I still hang on that and agree, guard play will cost them the natty.
