The Gators entered Saturday's game hoping for their first true road win of the season and to extend their current win streak to five against Butler.
Florida accomplished neither of those goals in front of a sold-out Hinkle Fieldhouse and let a great opportunity to pick up a quality win get away behind inconsistency on the offensive and defensive sides of the ball.
The Gators were unable to keep up with Butler's offensive efficiency, losing 76-62 to the Bulldogs in Indianapolis.
UF (6-3) looked ready to perform at the start of the first half. A quick 5-0 advantage eventually grew to a 19-13 lead into the middle of the first half, despite two lengthy scoring droughts within the first 10 minutes of the game.
