Lucas: Rapid Reactions - Florida

Posted Nov 28, 2014
Think back to how frustrated you were with Carolina's lackluster defensive effort against Butler on Wednesday. The Tar Heels were equally that good against Florida on Friday, essentially reducing the Gators to just firing away from the three-point line and hoping their jumpers would find the mark. Billy Donovan's club took nearly half their shots (15 of 31) from beyond the arc in the first half. (GoHeels.com)
