Personally, I enjoy Florida style more...
But as for school brand, Houston...

Florida or Houston, who do you prefer

- Start date
I won't be upset with either. Just happy it won't be DOOK. At the moment, probably lean towards Houston. Easy bunch to root for. Not one of those SEC conference pride boys.
Toughest conference deserves to win it all. Go Gators.
Sampson: Old guy like me.
Florida only because I win money if they win
This was the ideal matchup. I'm just hoping for an entertaining championship game!
I’m good either way now. I was really hoping that Auburn or Duke didn’t win it just because of rivalries, so this matchup is the best outcome. Both teams are pretty likable in their own way.
I want Houston to win. I respect the hell out of Samson as a coach, and I’d rather keep the ‘ship out of the SEC. Can’t say I love Golden, either, though he clearly knows basketball.

I’m pulling for Houston.
They have fallen short so many times throughout the years.
Phi Slamma Jamma should have won a title in the 80’s.
And Sampson is one of my favorite coaches, right now.
And Golden seems kind of douchey. Gives me that pretty boy Duke vibe.
But I can live with UF winning, though.
Just glad it won’t be Duke!!!!

If I had to pick I'd say Florida. But either is fine with me. Both teams and their coaches are deserving. So happy Duke isn't there, and to a lesser degree, Auburn.
Houston.
Just because everyone had them dead and buried after the 4-3 start. Very little was paid to them.

In my bracket I had Houston winning it all.
Actually kinda liked UF this year. Fairly likeable squad, but man UH just saved me from a lifetime of Cooper Flagg college highlights. Go Cougs!
Houston. Crazy that some people forget Florida was our one SEC rival forever before they started sucking.
I root against teams once UK is out. My hate list is Duke, UNC, IU, UCLA and any SEC team not named Kentucky. Houston all the way. This Houston group is not Phi Slama Jama, but I hope they beat UF.
Same, slightly pulling for Houston. Sampson is getting long in the tooth. Golden will have more opportunities.
Houston took out the Vols and the Dukies and I picked them to win it all. But I won't be mad if Florida wins.
Houston, cool for Sampson to get one in his twilight years, and I’ll dig at indiana fans. I’d hate to have another title winning coach in the SEC.
Houston.
They eliminated UT and Duke for us. They earned our support.
Nothing against Florida, just that they are a SEC rival, so I'd prefer they don't win (but if they do, no biggie).

my feeling is if espn considers fl one of our rivals, so be it. i prefer the measuring stick. you see it all the time in cbb, teams rivals winning titles the next year. ul/uk, duke/unc etc. houston is the sentimental pick because of what we just saw, and houston having all these ff’s and no title. i’d say it’s better for us psychologically if uf wins. heck, we beat them.
I almost always root for the SEC team and Florida’s roster is much more likable than Auburn, Tennessee or Alabama’s.
Florida would be Ok so I can say "yea, they won, but we beat them"...but I think I'll root for Houston with my TX next door neighbors. Easy to like that team and we don't need anymore teams with 3 championships.
Sampson is a great Coach. IU made a huge mistake not staying with him. I would love to see him get a Natty. Lets go Houston!
Todd Golden will have plenty more opportunities. Not saying Sampson is going anywhere but I’d like to see Sampson get one. He’s earned it.
