Florida Gaters Guard Bennett Andersen's big eyes interview with a female reporter has become viral online – with fans the March Madness star convinced 'Fell in Love'.
After the 87-71 Sweet 16 victory of Florida on the Maryland Terrapins on Thursday, Talia Baia of ESPN GaineSville entered the dressing room in Chase Center to speak with Andersen.
Baia initially congratulated the Gaters-hero, also known as 'buckets', for making a two-guide in the victory and helping to continue his team to the Elite Eight stage.
And while he answered a number of questions, fans couldn't help it, but noticed how beaten Andersen looked like while he beamed to her during the interview.
“I think a young man fell in love,” said a user on X.
Another joke: “He looked at her as if she were the moon and the stars.”

“That man is in love with fun,” wrote a third.
“My husband found his soulmate,” said a fourth fan about Andersen.
While another noticed: “Bros better than me, I would have folded.”
After the victory over Maryland, Andersen and Florida got better from Texas Tech in the Elite Eight on Saturday evening.
Although he did not come to the field in the game, his Gaters teammates achieved a precious victory of 84-79, largely thanks to a beautiful 30-point trek by Walter Clayton Jr.
Thomas Haugh was also present with 20 points, with Alijah Martin set up 10.
The Gators must now wait to find out their opponents in the last four of the NCAA Men's Tournament this year next Saturday.
