No. 14 Florida is the biggest sleeper team in the nation right now, and lived up to that in an incredible second-half display against Alabama on Tuesday night. This group of Gators didn't become a sleeper team without shaking some nightmares first. The two years following the program's back-to-back national championships brought turmoil, underachievement and embarrassment. Now the tight-knit group is playing for one another, and playing with a chip on its shoulder. A deadly combination. With a share of the SEC regular-season title already clinched, this deep and talented Gators squad seems prime to bite a few teams when it's time to dance.
In other College Basketball news, No. 3 BYU's frontcourt takes another hit, and No. 2 Kansas reinstates Tyshawn Taylor.
I also get into NFL news related to Bengals QB Carson Palmer, Blaine Gabbert at the Combine and the NFL labor issues. I give my reaction to NBA action from last night. And can we do away with these overdramatic Masters commercials??
