Coleman Coliseum Hosts Alabama Crimson Tide and Florida Gators in Men's Basketball Clash

The Alabama Crimson Tide, ranked third nationally, delivered a commanding performance against the Florida Gators at Coleman Coliseum. The final scoreboard read 97-69 in favor of the home team, marking another victory for the Crimson Tide and a defeat for the Gators.

The Alabama Crimson Tide showcased their offensive strength by netting 36 field goals on 73 attempts, translating to an impressive field goal percentage of 49. The three-point line was also friendly to them as they converted 15 out of 34 attempts, rounding off to a solid three-point shooting percentage of 44. Inside the paint proved fruitful as well with the team scoring 36 points.

Defensively, Alabama was just as formidable. They rejected seven shots while stealing possession eight times from their opponents. Their rebounding effort was notable with a total of 45 rebounds; among these were ten offensive boards that contributed to second-chance opportunities resulting in 13 points.

The Gators fought valiantly but struggled with their shooting accuracy throughout the game. They managed only a field goal percentage of nearly 35 and were less effective from beyond the arc with a three-point shooting percentage close to 29. Despite pulling down an admirable number of rebounds at 41, it wasn't enough to turn the tide in their favor.

Alabama's teamwork shone through with double the number of assists compared to turnovers – they recorded an assist-to-turnover ratio over two – indicative of their cohesive playmaking and ball control throughout this conference game.
