Postgame grades: Gators can’t overcome shooting woes, fall to the Tide

Florida can’t find a rhythm offensively as it suffers a tough home loss to Alabama — snapping its 11-game winning streak against the Crimson Tide.

The Gators’ shooting struggles returned in full force against Alabama, scoring an SEC season-low 55 points in the loss to the Crimson Tide.

For Florida, this was a game it absolutely had to have. Entering the contest, the Gators were riding an 11-game winning streak in the series and hadn’t suffered a defeat against the Tide in Gainesville since 1995. But Bama’s defense bamboozled Florida in its halfcourt offense and allowed virtually nothing in transition.
