NCAA Tournament Title Game

University of Florida 84, Ohio State University 75. You think that Buckeyes fans will cringe everytime they see a Gators logo, given that their team has now lost to UF in both the football and basketball title games three months apart? I wouldn't blame them at all if they did. Watching last night's game was almost like watching most Super Bowls. One team was clearly better than the other, so there really wasn't very much (if any) drama during the game. You never got the sense that Ohio State "scared" Florida. The scariest thing about this Florida team? Outside of some peripheral players, the majority of the team could come back next season and try for a "three-peat". I doubt very much that they will do so, and there are those constant rumours that coach Billy Donovan is destined to take over at the University of Kentucky, but it's still something to give pause to Gators-haters, of which I am certainly one.
