The Gators kept it interesting by letting a 17 point lead leak away and turn into a 5 point lead in the final minutes but ultimately they were able to hold on for a 70-63 win over the Georgia Bulldogs. This game was far from a masterpiece as both teams struggled to get open looks and hit those shots when the opportunities came, and a combined 32 turnovers spoke to the lack of execution as well. Colin Castleton led the way in the points column with 14 while also contributing 7 rebounds and, of course, 3 huge blocks.
Turnover Troubles
Florida was able to come away with the win but they didn’t look smooth at all in doing so, particularly when it came to handling the ball.
