ESPN Writer Andy Katz Impressed With Gator MBB

Which team impressed you the most over the weekend?

Katz: Florida. The Gators won in what traditionally has been a rough spot for them at Bud Walton Arena and they did so without their leading scorer, Casey Prather. Florida's Scottie Wilbekin made key plays late in the game to force overtime and in that period the Gators proved to be even more of an experienced, disciplined unit. This win will go a long way toward helping Florida prepare for a March win.

Brennan: Creighton. Not only did Doug McDermott show zero ill signs of the sprained shoulder he suffered last week, but his 35 points on 24 shots -- and the Bluejays' ability to outpace a hot Xavier team that got 27 on the road from Semaj Christon -- speaks volumes about their ability to withstand the loss of guard Grant Gibbs over the next month and change.

Brown: Iowa. The Hawkeyes finally stopped the narrative that they lose close games -- especially on the road -- by winning at Ohio State. Maybe folks can stop focusing on Fran McCaffery's meltdown against Wisconsin and focus on their team again.
