Not only was Andrew Nembhard’s shooting perfect this past weekend at Alabama, so was the freshman point guard’s timing.
Nembhard’s 9-for-9 performance from the field carried the Florida Gators to a win critical to their tenuous NCAA Tournament aspirations.
“It was a big win for us because opportunities are running out,” coach Mike White said Tuesday.
The Gators (14-11, 6-6 SEC) look to capitalize on an even bigger opportunity Wednesday night at No. 13 LSU (21-4, 11-1).
Pretty much everything will have to go right for UF to challenge the red-hot Tigers, winners of 14 of 15 games, including a 73-71 decision last week at No.
