Cougars. Sampson is a good coach and his teams play defense. Men vs boys tonight. Added a little offense this year.

Like others said, SEC can kiss mine. Suck a big one Golden!

I have Florida in all of my brackets. Most successful bracket year of my life.

8/8 in the Elite 8
4/4 in the Final 4.
2/2 in the Championship game.

I'd like Florida for the sake of my bracket. But I'm a fan of both teams. Both teams play hard. They play fun to watch basketball. Houston saved us from a Duke championship game.

Neither team is anywhere near blue blood territory. Neither team has super annoying dudes (I'm looking at you, Auburn).

would like to see an epic battle, 3 OT back and forth with one team winning like NC State Charles putting in a short shot or something like that. Just something to remember over the summer till we are ready to start our path once again.

Houston. Sampson is old enough to retire. Winning one may help him decide to retire. So Houston gets to celebrate, but then loses momentum gained by winning.
UF doesn’t need a title until we get 3 more

I had Florida winning it all in my bracket so I'll go with the. But, just really want to see a good championship game and happy we don't have to endure the Duke and Flagg slurping during the game.

Although I picked the Gators to win in my head bracket, going head to head with Houston, I would like to see Houston win. Even though it would blow up my bracket. I dont care about that. What I'd like to see is Samson get something he has put long hard years work into and get some well deserved recognition.

He is one hellofa great coach.

I think his boys will pull it out.

I used to live in Houston in 89 after Phi Slamma Jamma in the 80's. Man those were some great teams that came up just short. I still think the Gators will win, unless Clayton finally goes cold. Houston would be the team for him to cold against, I'd say.

Want to see a great game, Best of luck to both programs as a whole. Having lived in both Florida and Houston too, with friends and family there, I know they are excited. Happy for them and whomever wins, it's gonna be a great game to watch, I think.

Head still says Florida wins but heart now wants to see Houston win it.

awesome end to the year coming up !

It's hard for me to not root for the team that just ended Duke's season in the most miserable way ever. Thank you Houston! But, I'm also perfectly fine if Florida wins as I do like their team and it would be cool to see Clayton go out with a title.

I can’t believe this is even a question that needs to be asked. Have people already forgotten how unendingly obnoxious Florida fans were about their 30 year win streak? I do not care if it’s a completely different sport, Houston all the way

Florida. I picked them in February and my brother went there and I was born there. All my older siblings are Florida fans and I grew up in a house divided. But I certainly wouldn't mind if Houston won either. I can't believe I missed the end of the Duke game.

I’ll be cheering for Houston. They deserve it after what they pulled off last night.

But I have a feeling they might have a letdown similar to what happened to Wisconsin in the 2015 Final after they pulled their huge win over us two days before.

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!

Imo Florida is everything i hope UK can get back to. Wcj is every bit the college player that flagg is. Clutch gene is off the charts.

Condon and haugh are incredible and can do everything, while never ever showboating, flopping, being selfish, or being dramatic.

Chinyelu is physical but knows his limitations and plays within them. All the other supporting cast all play their roles too. Everyone passes great and shares the ball.

Im jealous of their team, but they really are a pleasure to watch.

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!!!!
This.
I expect a Houston bounce though.
Drama saps a team a lot of times.
Looking at you vols.

I’m just happy that Auburn and Duke are out, so I’m rooting for Houston. I like Sampson, good coach and seems pretty humble.

Florida. I have thoroughly enjoyed watching them this season. Flashy, athletic but disciplined and unselfish.That program has had a remarkable rise in the last three years that I very much hope we emulate.

I think Florida will win.

Obviously I'd prefer Houston. I think this is going to be similar to 2015 when Wisconsin shot their load coming back against UK. I think they will run put of gas n 2nd half of close game this time.

I know Florida had to make a comeback against au as well but it was more effortless.
