And here is a bit of preview from the other side:

How Tennis Scoring Work:

In case you have not watched college tennis before, the meet starts with simultaneous play of 3 doubles matches, first to win at least 8 games and by 2. The team who wins two doubles matches first win ONE point. Then the six singles matches happen (more or less simultaneous) - best of 3 sets, with the winning team of each singles match awarded one point. First team to 4 point wins the meet.

The Gators have swept all their matches in the NCAA so far and they are obviously quite good. Bears would need a total team effort to pull off the upset but stranger things have happened.

GO BEARS!
