Heading to Brooklyn on Tuesday the Gators have a chance to start turning around a tough start to the season with a neutral site game against the Providence Friars.
Entering the season as one of the favorites to contend for a Big East title the team hasn’t played up to expectations and what was looking like a challenging game on the Gators’ schedule before the season that gave an opportunity for a major resume win is now looking like a bad loss they need to avoid. With their most recent game coming on December 7th against Butler the Gators have had plenty of opportunity to prepare for this contest and will be looking to sharpen up their offensive execution and tighten up their defensive communication.
