Florida Gulf Coast beat Miami 63-51 in November.
If they can beat a 2-seed then, they can beat a 2-seed now. Don't sleep.

Here is a quick lowdown on Florida Gulf Coast. I won't be able to make it because of work on Friday, but I may try to go Sunday, assuming we win.
Florida Gulf Coast University (ranked 125 by KenPom):
Offensive Ranking: 151
Defenive Ranking: 115
Various Offensive Statistics (Rankings)
eFG%: 67
Turnover %: 230
Offensive Rebounding: 121
3PT %: 213
2 PT %: 24
FT%: 252
Point Distribution:
2 PT: 54.2%
3 PT: 27.5%
FTs: 18.4%
There will be a lot said, but Florida Gulf Coast is not as good as Belmont was last year, but Floria Gulf Coast is ranked higher than USF (ranked 146 on Ken Pom). The fact that they are not a great defensive team should mean we can get looks on offense. They also have some bigger guys, but the guys who get higher minutes are mostly shorter, except for one 6'8 guy.
Things I like here: they seem to turnover the ball a lot (and they probably haven't faced defense nearly as good as ours) and they do not seem overly reliant on three point shooting.

FGC played VCU, Duke, SJU and Miami. That is almost a benefit for us, IMO. Much better film to scout in seeing how good teams beat them. I want to say that duke-FGC may have even been on espnu.

They're no slouch. They led Duke at Duke 30-29 before Duke went on a 30-0 run. They are smallish but not tiny (6'8" and 6'9" up front). They seem to be average in all areas...not terrible anywhere, but they don't do anything terrifically well.
