Auburn (13-1, 2-0) has begun their SEC run with a pair of 15-point wins over LSU and South Carolina. Tonight, the Tigers face a team that they have historically struggled against this century.
The Florida Gators (9-4, 0-1) come into town this evening in what should be a terrific matchup of big man as Walker Kessler goes up against Florida’s Colin Castleton. Castleton was a 1st-Team all-SEC player preseason and will be on the best big men the Tigers face in SEC play.
Dating back to the 1999-2000 season, Auburn is 4-24 against Florida. In that time, 3 of those 4 wins have come in the SEC Tournament with the only regular season win coming in the Final Four season, a 76-62 win.
