Kansas State 9-1 (3-3 ATS) vs. Florida 7-2 (1-6 ATS)<\/strong>
\nSaturday December 18 – 3:30<\/strong>
\nRecent history:<\/strong> There are no recent meeting between these teams.<\/p>\n

Kansas State has been pretty sharp against a weak opening schedule. \u00a0This team was ranked highly in the preseason but have played mainly third tier competition (a third of their games haven’t even been lined) with the exception of Duke who beat them pretty easily. \u00a0This is a very good and athletic team that should challenge for the Big 12 title and this weekend against an experienced Florida team will be a good test. \u00a0The key as always will be the Beard, Jacob Pullen. \u00a0His scoring is down early which is in part due to reduced minutes that will climb as the season progresses. \u00a0<\/p>\n

But he also isn’t shooting well. \u00a0Duke held him to just four points and may have shown the rest of the nation how to limit this explosive scorer. \u00a0<\/p>\n

If K-State wants to be elite they need to get him untracked \u00a0starting now. \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The Gators have been disappointing so far this season. \u00a0With five returning starters they should have started to season more sharply instead they were blown out at home by the Buckeyes and inexplicably lost on the road at Central Florida. \u00a0<\/p>\n

They are an ugly 1-6 ATS which only further demonstrates that they have been disappointing bettors as much as everybody else. \u00a0Their poor play has been across the board too. \u00a0<\/p>\n

Kenny Boynton, who has never seen a shot he shouldn’t take, is shooting a dismal 37% and nobody is hammering the glass. \u00a0Also, Alex Tyus has disappeared. \u00a0He was smart to withdraw from the NBA draft in the spring but he is not going to get anyone’s attention by averaging 9 points and 5 rebounds per game. \u00a0Florida has the talent to compete with K-State and they have the right mix of personnel to match up well too. \u00a0<\/p>\n

They just have to start playing…and they will.<\/p>\n

K-State is going to be very tough in the conference but right now it seems like they are trying to figure out some stuff. \u00a0The Gators have the talent to win but they will have to match the Wildcats intensity. \u00a0This should come down to the wire with the Gators winning it.<\/p>\n
