The Florida Gators lost a heart breaker to Tennessee last night by a score of 60-61. The Gators took a 34-28 lead at halftime but couldn’t finish the game – even when they had the ball last. Tennessee hit the go ahead shot and gave the ball back to Florida with about 14 seconds left. Tyus had a very good look at the basket from like 4 feet away with only 3 seconds left, but he couldn’t make the bank shot.

I’m impressed with the Gators ability to stay close to highly ranked opponent. They slowed the game down and played good defense. Moral victories don’t count for much and a win here would have been huge for this team. Hopefully they can recover and keep winning in the SEC.
Alex Tyus led the Gators in scoring with 18 points, he also added 7 rebounds. Junior Chandler Parsons scored 14 points, including a three-pointer with 30 seconds left in the game to put the Gators up 60-59. He also had eight rebounds. The Gators really missed Kenny Boynton – in 33 minutes of play he was 2-11 from the floor and 0-5 from beyond the arc.

Florida travels to Tuscaloosa on Thursday to face Alabama at 7:00 p.m. The game will be televised on ESPNU.

Here is a highlight recap from the game:

One way to look at that UT loss was that we had already stolen two wins (SC and AR). We have danced with the devil too many times this season. Time to build a lead earlier and protect it until the buzzer!
