The Florida Gators (8-3) beat the Jacksonville University Dolphins by 24 points, out-rebounded JU 44-to-34, shot 52.5% from the field and held the Dolphins to just 35.9% shooting but on the eve of Festivus all the Gators could talk about was “Christmas-itis.”
“I just thought we had Christmas-itis and that’s all we talked about the last 72 hours. It’s just disappointing from that standpoint,” head coach Mike White said. “Every time you’re between the lines the goal is to get a little bit better, to take a step in the right direction. If we want to be average then we accomplished that tonight.
