It was close to a must-win situation for the Gators on Saturday as they welcomed the Vanderbilt Commodores to town but they weren’t able to take care of business, losing 88-80 and putting their NCAA Tournament hopes into a critical situation. It’s hard to say whether or not the Gators took the Commodores lightly but Vandy controlled the play for much of the game and looked like the more confident, free-playing team particularly down the stretch. It was close entering the final minutes and it seemed like the Gators were a team that knew that it couldn’t lose and the Commodores were able to win the execution battle in the final minutes handing Florida a tough loss.
