If so, where the hell are they. Its the day before the Final Four and not a damn peep. I want some talking, dic& swangin and personal insults on here. This silence is bad mojo. Maybe someone can pry SDHusky off the Syracuse board to get something going.

Do they even know about this board? Not that I care to deal with them at all, but maybe they are just looking for scout, rivals, etc. I am sure they are buzzing over at gator country, but it is probably nothing worth reading.

Yeah was wondering myself. I couldn't really find any "active" basketball talk on the Gators.

I was on a flight from Philly to Dallas yesterday and saw a guy with a Gators hat. I stopped and said "boooooo Florida" jokingly. He looked me up and down like I was crazy, finally realizing my UConn shirt and said "oh that makes sense". I asked if he was going to Dallas for the game and he said "no, I'll just be around".

So no I've seen zero Florida fans in Dallas so far.

Was eating at Dog Lane before the Florida game in December and saw a handful of Florida fans there ... so they're out there somewhere.

They're already posting on Wisconsin and Kentucky's boards.

They're a little worried. They're about to face one of the two teams they lost to all year. And the other team could be waiting in the wings (just trying to view things in gteen glasses).

Every Florida fan I have talked to is actually supremely confident bc Wilbekin, Walker, Hill and one other starter either didn't play or played very limited minutes in the last UConn game. Also, Pitino is going to help them out. Hill is going to destroy UConn with his speed. Wilbekin (now finally healthy) will shutdown Napier. Walker will provide the extra depth they need. And the other missing starter (sometimes Frazier, sometimes Yeguette) will either bomb 4-5 threes or dominate the glass. It's a mixed bag of stupid and ignorant. Stupid are those who insist Wilbekin only played a few minutes before he was injured and/or they had another starter missing. Ignorant are those who at least admit they are confused. The closest I have heard UConn will be is within 7-8 points, most feel it will be UF in the 70s and UConn in the mid 50s. Yes, many expect a 15-20 point win that I have seen.

I live in Florida. Trust me, they are all over and obnoxious. If nothing else, I congratulate them on finally becoming a basketball school since my criteria for that is to make a Final Four in the same calendar year your football team doesn't qualify for a bowl game.

They don't think it is as funny as I do.

They’re probably just having difficulty logging into their AOL accounts on their Xboxes.

I sat next to a Florida couple on the plane to Dallas. They were playing Soduki arguing strategy. I think a conversation about smack talking was not in the cards.

To be fair, once they get past those hurdles, they need to figure out what an "a d b locker" is and how to turn it off.

I would assume they are looking past us and onto an all SEC championship. Dont blame them, we have no shot according to all the experts

When the HEAT and FL won the same year most people didn't know or care at all," isn't that basketball yo'all talkin bout".

Living in Jacksonville, been wearing my husky gear all week. Not a single peep from anyone. And believe me I have seen tons of people wearing gator stuff. Either they are looking ahead, worried or are simply waiting on the spring football game.

There are a few of us Jax Huskies around here. Where are you guys watching the game?

I watch at home with my 6 yr old. He loves the games plus my wife doesn't like me in public for these games. ;) We should all get together for some games next season.
