Gators championship special on WFTV

Roger Simmons, April 2, 2007

The Florida Gators are in college basketball’s national championship game — again. WKMG-Channel 6 will air CBS’ coverage of the game against Ohio State tonight starting at 9.

 

WFTV-Channel 9 has sent a handful of people to the Georgia Dome and will air a pre-game special on the Gators tonight at 7:30. "Gators: Go for the Glory" will have sports anchors Zach Klein and Jenny Dunn — who both hosted Sunday’s Sports Night on 9 highlight show live from Atlanta.

News anchor Cynthia Demos will kick off WFTV’s Gators coverage with live reports from Atlanta this morning on Eyewitness News Daybreak.
