JSU tried to keep it close in the first half, but the Gators proved that they are a force to be reckoned with in the second half by beating the Tigers 112-69. A part of me wanted to root for JSU (which I would've if they played UNC, Kansas or Ohio State), but I'm a huge Gators fan and I knew that JSU wouldn't be able to compete once Florida got it going.
