Sunday's Games

Some more upsets in the Top 25 today. Florida suffered their 2nd loss, Maryland their 1st, and Georgia Tech their 2nd. Florida is not performing at the level they should right now, but they could easily turn it around in no time. Tonight they played without Brewer, but I still expected them to win at Florida St. It may be that they play better as the underdog, and they aren't as good at dealing with success. They have at least proved that they are beatable.
