The Florida Gators were clicking on all cylinders in Saturday’s 65-39 victory over the Virginia Cavaliers in the second round of the NCAA Tournament.
Virginia’s elite defense was the biggest storyline coming into the game, but in the end, Florida’s defense got the last laugh. It was the Cavaliers’ lowest point total since scoring 38 against Wisconsin in 2013 and the fewest points allowed by Florida since 2014.
The Cavaliers held four teams under 40 points this season, so the Gators made sure to return the favor.
After a slow start, Florida trailed Virginia 13-11 with 11:42 remaining in the first half.
