One second-half burst by Florida, fueled by someone who barely played in the first half because foul trouble, was enough to break LSU’s five-game win streak on Saturday afternoon in Gainesville.
Center Colin Castleton scored 17 of Florida’s first 19 second-half points as his team-high 21 points sparked the Gators to an 83-79 SEC victory.
It wasn’t any surprise to the Tigers’ (6-2, 1-1 overall) that the 6-11 Castleton, a Michigan transfer, was so effective. They saw film of his 23-point effort in Florida’s 19-point win at Vanderbilt on Wednesday night.
