Chiozza, UF face Texas Tech on Saturday night with Sweet 16 berth on the line

A sloppy and early exit from the SEC Tournament on March 9 left a bad taste in the mouth of Florida’s men’s basketball program.

Six days later, it was replaced with the triumph of advancing past St. Bonaventure in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. Now, UF has a chance to build on that momentum and play its way into the Sweet 16 for a second straight year.

No. 6 seed Florida (21-12) and No. 3 seed Texas Tech (25-9) will put their seasons on the line in the Round of 32 on Saturday at 8:40 p.
