Come join fellow Gators for the first basketball viewing party of the year! We play Ohio State in what is prepping up to be an early season Showdown! Come show your love with fellow Gators!
The gators are coming of a 114-57 exhibition beatdown as they prepare for the opener against Jackson State on Nov. 11th. This all leads into the top 10 matchup against OSU.
Three gators were named to the SEC first team, Boynton, Walker and Young. Young actually played with the U-19 USA basketball team over the summer and looked great!Then of course we have Bradley Beal coming in, arguably the most hyped PG at Florida since Teddy Dupay? We can always take solace in the fact that the hangover from Gator Football season can be cured with this team. Expect big things this season!

Florida Gators vs South Carolina Gamecocks
Florida Gators vs South Carolina Gamecocks
Saturday 9:00am PT
Spitfire
Stay afterwards to see a Seattle Gator Club Board Meeting in action, immediately after the game
Howdy Gators!
Well, we finally notched a victory, and while not a pretty win by any means, given the difficult times of late for Florida, you take what you can get! Indeed, it’s not been an easy season, to say the least, but it’s hard to get too worked up about a few losses when you look at the devastatingly sordid story unraveling up in Big 10 Country. When it comes down to it, football is just a game, and we all (myself definitely included) may sometimes forget that.
But on to much, much lighter matters. This weekend the Gators head to Columbia to face off against the #13 Gamecocks. After a very brief respite from the SEC grind (although Vandy was obviously no pushover), the Orange and Blue face off against the beloved Old Ball Coach. South Carolina is coming off a thorough beating to the Razorbacks down in Arkansas, and one can only assume they will be chomping at the bit for a win this Saturday. Given the powerful passing attack of SC, and the fact that our secondary has not looked particularly dazzling this year, presumably we will see a healthy dose of Air Spurrier. On the bright side for the Gators, their run defense has been looking stout of late, while the Gamecocks are seriously depleted in the offensive backfield, so perhaps we can drop back a bit and pull in a few INTs (hope springs eternal…)
As mentioned in a few previous mails this season, we face a very tough task ahead against a talented team. However, a good, competitive showing that demonstrates growth for the shaky Gators may just be enough to assuage the frustrations of this season. And if that doesn’t happen, well it’s only a game, and we should all just enjoy watching it.
Go Gators!
