The Florida Gators improved to 9-7 (2-2 SEC) after defeating the LSU Tigers 67-56 in Baton Rouge on Tuesday night.
The game started about as poorly as you could imagine for Todd Golden’s squad. The Gators missed a pair of free throws, allowed two offensive rebounds, and went scoreless in the first four minutes of the game, finding themselves trailing 7-0 after the first media timeout.
Florida answered with a quick 8-0 run which gave the Gators their first lead of the night roughly six minutes into the 1st half.
Bad shot selections led to poor three-point shooting and a sloppy 1st half for both teams.
