With Howard on the move following Auburn’s loss in the Final Four to Florida, the Tigers will look at what’s next. Meeting in the Final Four was almost fitting, deciding who would get a spot in the national championship game on Monday night.

The game more than delivered, with all 40 minutes providing entertainment. Ultimately, Florida found themselves as winners when the final buzzer sounded. A great accomplishment for head coach Todd Golden, now being one win away from cutting down the nets in his second season in charge.

Usually, the Final Four calls for stars to step up on the biggest stage. Florida counted on Walter Clayton for a lot and he delivered in a massive way. He finished with 34 points with an incredible 11-18 night from the field.
