Lack Of Execution Down The Stretch Leads To 82-71 Loss At Wake Forest

Florida played 36 minutes of good basketball against Wake Forest on Wednesday but during the biggest possessions of the game they collapsed and the Demon Deacons came away with a 82-71 game. While the final score might look like it was a game Wake Forest controlled–that wasn’t the case. It was a close contest until crunch time with Zyon Pullin making a midrange jumper with 4:03 left to tie the game 64-64. At that moment, the wheels fell off. Florida couldn’t generate a good shot and started turning the ball over, and on the opposite side of the floor the Demon Deacons were scoring at will.
