The Florida Gators basketball team (6-1) will get their first true road test of the season as they travel south to take on in state rival, the No. 17/20 Miami Hurricanes (7-1) on Tuesday night.
This will be the second ranked team that Head Coach Mike White and team will face so far this season. Their first ranked opponent—No. 21/23 Purdue—also handed the Gators their only loss of the season so far, a 70-85 game.
It’s easy to compare the two matchups and White isn’t shying from doing so.
“Miami is really good, like Purdue,” says White.
