hoops What antics/gimmick will you have for us?

Gators go on a tough road test Saturday at Arky and you have MSU. But this coming Tuesday you get the reigning national champions in your house.

What antics will the Vols fans engage in? What gimmick will Pearl and Summit or the administration pull for this important game?

My prediction, by the way:

UT 88
UF 65


Gators get a dose of reality.

why on earth would we need antics or gimmicks. we've beaten you the last 3 of 4 when you actually had NBA quality talent in Gainesville and Donovan's coaching didn't matter. Now we're better off. You might have a couple of NBA hangers on in town, but Donovan's coaching matters again.

No brainer for us.

No gimmicks, just Pearl coaching his butt off while sweating through his jacket. I expect Tyler Smith and Lofton to go OFF.

It will be a good game though.

I'm not saying you need to engage in theatrics to win. I think you will beat us easily simply based on talent, experience, and ability.

But it is becoming a trademark of your program that there's some sort of off-beat spectacle-making antic done by the fans or the school or a coach or something.

Pearl at the women's game painting his chest was pretty clever, even though it was for a woman's game and by virtue of that means he is going to hell. The Summit follow-up to that, kinda sad.

But I imagine they got something planned for the Gator game.

Well I think the cast of the Munsters will be there to cheer on Eddie Munster, course they will be the only ones cheering for FU.

I may be totally wrong but I think the better we get the more the antics will fade away.

Yeah, hosting the two-time defending national champions is a yawner. My guess is that half the seats are empty.
