Can't Miss! Top Seed Bulldogs Seem Set to Win March Madness 2023 Final Four!
Saint Louis center and viral sensation Robbie Avila is a big reason why not very many fans will be cheering for Georgia basketball
Not many neutral fans will be cheering for the Georgia Bulldogs in March Madness . Why is that? Well, Georgia is going up against viral sensation and fan-favorite Robbie Avila of the Saint Louis Billikens.
Avila has drawn some unique nicknames and a lot of attention on social media. However, his popularity is not all hype. Avila is a great player and was named as the Atlantic 10 Player of the Year .
Avila's viral nicknames include "college Jokic", "Cream Abdul-Jabbar", "Larry Nerd", "Milk Chamberlain" and more. It is hard to find a player with a better set of nicknames in any college sport. Avila's presence could help turn what would be expected to be a more neutral crowd in Buffalo, New York, into a crowd that fancies the Billikens.
Avila's passing and interior presence helped Saint Louis open the season up 24-1. The Billikens have gone 4-4 over their last eight games and aren't as hot as Georgia, who has won five of their last seven games. As Saint Louis looks to reclaim some momentum, Avila's ability to thrill the crowd should not be overlooked.
