This team has to close out games. Why didn’t Smart switch on that?

I'm pretty sure winning is the same as closing out a game

How far we’ve come from not making the tournament for a decade to bitching and moaning about how we reached 6-0

Too close for comfort. Up by 10 with 2 minutes left and we can’t put them away

How do you not defend that inbounds play? That’s a jr high play. Oh well, got the W.

Idiots can’t comprehend that. No one is complaining about winning but Great teams don’t blow 10 point leads in the last minute. That’s the reason this team has 3 losses from 2 points or less.

I’m not mad about this win at all. I expected UF to take the SEC this year. There is a strong argument that they are the most talented team in the SEC.

I’m really happy we got the win.

HUGE W. They can win the SEC again after beating a hot UF team coming in without Manning. Long road to travel, but I think they have what it takes to win it again or come very close.

The lack of closing out the game is a concern. They are basically playing with 6 to 7 guys. Love their grit, but it will get much more difficult as the grind of the SEC games go on.

If that includes being aggravated that this team just about pissed away the game... then yes. But yes, they won and had they lost... those whining about those bitching would be bitching as well.

FWIW, Mays should have taken the ball back out & wait to be fouled rather than taking that contested layup, which he missed.

True and maybe wrapped the ball up on the inbounds pass so it couldn't be tapped out his arms.

Team seems to get better each game and is winning while they do it.
