Florida Basketball: Gators focus on top-seeded Texas A&M after edging Arkansas in Round 2 of the SEC Tournament

The matchup between the No. 8 seed Florida basketball Gators and the No. 9 seed Arkansas Razorbacks was arguably one of the more exciting games in the second round of the Southeastern Conference tournament.

It was a game the Gators absolutely had to have in order to keep their fleeting NCAA tournament hopes alive, and they somehow found a way to come away with a win.

It was a valiant effort from Arkansas.

The Razorbacks, behind guard Dusty Hannahs’ 33 points, rallied from an 11-point deficit in the second half to cut the Florida lead to one.
