Losing a game is one thing. Losing in the exact same way, over and over again, has to be torturous for Florida men’s basketball coach Mike White.
A second-half barrage saved the Gators from a devastating home loss to Texas A&M on Tuesday night. No UF player had scored 20 points in a game this season heading into the matchup with the Aggies, but KeVaughn Allen and Noah Locke scored 31 and 27, respectively.
It took 17 games for a Florida men’s basketball player to eclipse 20 points in a contest.

The game looked as if it was going to overtime.
Teams rarely have a chance to avenge a non-conference loss in college basketball.
