Charged by a 19 point, 13 rebound performance by Tre Mann the Gators led from wire to wire with a sizable 74-57 win over the Auburn Tigers. Mere moments before the opening tip it was announced that Auburn would be without star freshman guard Sharife Cooper due to an ankle injury and without him the Tigers simply didn’t have enough playmaking to win against a Florida team playing about as feisty defensively as they have all season. Florida’s stellar 40 minutes of basketball breaks a bit of a dry spell they’d been having the last couple of games and they will be more than content with how they performed.
