Florida Gators basketball Defeats Vermont 86-62

There were times it seemed as if the Florida Gators basketball team had already spent Wednesday afternoon enjoying their Thanksgiving meal.

Despite coming off a 15-point loss to No. 16 Purdue on Sunday, the Gators were flat at times against Vermont.

However, while they may have never been on fire, there were still sparks, and it was the combination of them that gave Florida their 86-62 lead over the Catamounts.

The first spark came from big man John Egbunu who posted the Gators first five points of the game, helping to build a 7-0 lead that Vermont was never able to claw out of—not for lack of trying though.
