''They were opening up the lane. I >> was able to drive in the first half. They made it easy for me.'' >> Everyone else was struggling, but the Gators looked more familiar in the >> second half. Florida knocked down 7 of 11 from outside the stripe and turned >> up the defensive pressure, limiting Georgia to 32 percent shooting (6 of 19) >> from the field. The Bulldogs finished with 17 turnovers, compared to just >> seven for Florida. >> ''We knew it was going to be a grind-it-out, physical game,'' Gators coach >> Billy Donovan said. ''They were not going to get in a running game with us. >> They were going to run some clock. They forced us to dig a little deeper.'' >> Despite never leading in the first half, Florida added to its run of >> dominance in conference play. The Gators have won their first five SEC games >> by an average of nearly 25 points. >> Wilbekin, who was averaging 8.3 points a game, equaled his career best from >> a November victory over Central Florida. Kenny Boyntonadded 14 points, while >> Erik Murphy had 13. >> ''Scottie and the Georgia turnovers kept us close,'' Donovan said. ''We >> could've been down 10 or 12. To only be down by three at the half, we were >> fortunate.'' >> Florida already had beaten Georgia 77-44 two weeks ago in Gainesville, but >> the Bulldogs were more competitive in this one, at least for a half. >> Kentavious Caldwell-Pope led the home team with 16 points. >> No other Georgia player was in double figures. >> ''A tale of two halves,'' Bulldogs coach Mark Fox said. ''We didn't start >> the second half well at all. We just couldn't stabilize our defense in the >> second half. We just couldn't find a way to get stops in the second half, >> and they shot the ball very well.'' >> Before a half-filled Stegeman Coliseum, the Bulldogs went right at the >> Gators from the opening tip, scoring the first six points and quickly >> building an 11-2 lead. Florida tied it a couple of times but, surprisingly, >> never had the lead before the break. >> Georgia stayed on top with accurate shooting from beyond the arc, knocking >> down 6 of 11 by halftime. The Gators, by comparison, made just 1 of 9. >> Caldwell-Pope finished off the half by swishing a long 3-pointer just before >> the buzzer, sending the Bulldogs racing off the court with the lead. >> It didn't last. >> ''We were feeling good about the first half,'' Caldwell-Pope said. ''We just >> wanted to throw the first punch, and we did. To start the second half, we >> gave up a couple of 3s and the momentum.'' >> Florida has won 17 of the last 20 in the series and made up for a 76-62 loss >> in Athens late last season. >> ''We remembered what happened last year,'' Wilbekin said. ''We weren't going >> to let that happen again.'' >> Georgia was coming off its first SEC win of the season, a 67-58 victory over >> LSU. But the Bulldogs just didn't have enough talent or depth to knock off >> the Gators, having already lost non-conference games at home to Youngstown >> State, Southern Miss and Iona. >> ''They played harder than us in the first half,'' Boynton said. ''Coach >> wanted us to come out in the second half and, no matter what we had going >> offensively, just get back together on defense. We tried to push up on them >> defensively in the second half to take away their 3-point shots and force >> them to drive.'' >> It worked. After doing so much damage from 3-point range, the Bulldogs got >> off only one long-range attempt in the final 20 minutes (and made it, too). >> The Bulldogs' offensive woes were summed up by Kenny Gaines, who went up for >> a dunk with about 5 minutes left but didn't even clear the rim. The crowd >> groaned, many of them deciding that was a good time to head for home. >> By the end, there were only a smattering of fans left, most of them wearing >> blue. >> >> >> Recap: Georgia vs. Florida >> >> BY SPORTS NETWORK >> THE SPORTS NETWORK >> Scottie Wilbekin scored a game-high 17 points on 7-of-9 shooting from the >> floor, while Will Yeguete donated seven points, four steals and 11 rebounds, >> as No. 8 Florida overcame a slow start to record a 64-47 victory over the >> Georgia Bulldogs on Wednesday. >> >> Kenny Boynton added 14 points and Erik Murphy contributed 13 for the Gators >> (15-2, 5-0 SEC), who have won seven straight games and 17 of the last 20 in >> the series versus Georgia. >> >> Kentavious Caldwell-Pope scored 16 points and pulled down seven boards for >> the Bulldogs (7-11, 1-4), who have lost four of their last five.
