UF was pretty fluid on offense until we went zone for a couple minutes. Seemed like it threw them off and they never really recovered.
The zone also gave us a chance to catch a breath. Our d was stifling otherwise and pretty demanding. Donovan called for a full court press much of the game, some zone some man. At first it looked like we were running a simple motion offense, but in the long run swinging the ball and cutting for 25 seconds every possession probably tired them out, they ran out of legs. Ultra aggressive D they ran is tiring but effective against non athletic teams. Their press didn't create enough turnovers and was too demanding.
I think discipline and athleticism won that game, and of course angel catching fire. Looks like we have a lot of room to improve, especially on offense, but that was an awesome game. Newton looks like a beast in making, and hopefully lecomte and Burnett have bigger roles. I don't want to even think about reed.
