How To Watch
What to Know
Florida has enjoyed a two-game homestand but will soon have to dust off their road jerseys. They and the Georgia Bulldogs will face off in an SEC battle at 1:00 p.m. ET on Saturday at Stegeman Coliseum. Georgia took a loss in their last matchup and will be looking to turn the tables on Florida, who comes in off a win.
Florida and the Tigers couldn’t quite live up to the 163-over/under that the experts had forecasted. The Gators sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 82-80 win over the Tigers on Tuesday. Winning is a bit easier when you outrebound your opponent 19 to 8 on the offensive boards, as Florida did.
Florida’s win was a true team effort, with many players turning in solid performances. Perhaps the best among them was Walter Clayton Jr., who scored 21 points. The team also got some help courtesy of Tyrese Samuel, who scored 15 points along with seven rebounds.
Meanwhile, Georgia’s recent rough patch got a bit rougher on Saturday after their fifth straight defeat. They fell just short of the Razorbacks by a score of 78-75.
Despite the defeat, Georgia had strong showings from Silas Demary Jr., who scored 19 points along with two steals, and Justin Hill, who scored 18 points. Hill didn’t help Georgia’s cause all that much against the Bulldogs on Wednesday but the same can’t be said for this matchup.
The Gators pushed their record up to 17-7 with that victory, which was their fifth straight at home. Those victories were due in large part to their offensive dominance across that stretch, as they averaged 86.8 points per game. As for the Bulldogs, they have traveled a rocky road recently having lost six of their last seven games, which put a noticeable dent in their 14-10 record this season.
Some high-performance offense is likely on the agenda as Florida and the Bulldogs are some of the highest scoring teams in the league. Florida hasn’t had any problem running up the score this season, having averaged 84.6 points per game. However, it’s not like Georgia struggles in that department as they’ve been averaging 75.9 points per game. With both teams so easily able to put up points, the only question left is who can run the score up higher.
Florida didn’t have too much breathing room in their match against the Bulldogs when the teams last played back in January, but they still walked away with a 102-98 win. One of the biggest obstacles the team faced in that game was Georgia’s RJ Melendez, who went 6 for 10 from beyond the arc en route to 35 points and 1 assist. Now that he’s got a second chance to win this matchup, will Florida still be able to contain Melendez? There’s only one way to find out.

Florida woman confesses to stabbing 76-year-old roommate to death, authorities say
A Florida woman confessed to stabbing her 76-year-old roommate to death before covering his body with a tarp, stealing his truck and driving away from the scene, according to authorities.
The Charlotte County Sheriff’s Office identified the suspect as Shannon R. Giblin, 48.

In a news release, the sheriff’s office said deputies were dispatched to a home on Sunday after they received a report about a person who was not breathing. When they arrived at the home, they found a man, later identified as Paul De Wayne Bradley, who was dead.
Police said they tracked Giblin down in Bradley’s truck, which was missing from the driveway, in Sarasota County.
“As Charlotte County detectives questioned Giblin, she provided a confession to stabbing Bradley following an argument,” Sheriff Bill Prummell said in the release.
“After realizing that the victim was beyond help, Giblin then covered Bradley with a tarp and left the scene in the victim’s pickup truck,” Prummell added.
Online jail records show Giblin was charged with second-degree murder, as well as grand theft of a motor vehicle.
“I want to recognize my Major Crimes detectives who worked this case through the night and identified the suspect quickly,” Prummell said. “They truly show a dedication to their craft and the results are irrefutable. I also want to thank the Sarasota County Sheriff’s Office for their quick actions in locating and detaining her based on the intelligence my team was able to share. As I have always said, Southwest Florida is fortunate to have law enforcement who work together so effectively for the people we serve.”

Giblin is being held without bond, according to the release.

Florida No Kings protests planned for Stuart, Fort Pierce
There are two No Kings protests planned for the Treasure Coast; one in Stuart and one in Fort Pierce.
No Kings Day protests are scheduled for March 28, with over a thousand protests planned across the United States.
Organizers say the No Kings events will challenge President Donald Trump as he escalates “his attempts to control us.” Dozens of protests are planned across Florida, including two on the Treasure Coast.
Here’s what to know about the protests.
What is a No Kings protest?
No Kings is a nationwide protest organized in response to President Donald Trump and his administration.
“It is on us, the people, to show that we will fight to protect one another and our country,” according to the nokings.org website. “If he believes we will roll over and allow him to take our freedoms, he is mistaken.”
One core principle of No Kings is a commitment to nonviolent action. The organization’s website states participants should seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with dissenters and act lawfully.
