Florida focused on avoiding complacency after ‘program building’ win over Tennessee

The Florida Gators turned college basketball on its head just a few days ago with their dominant 30-point victory over top ranked Tennessee, marking the most lopsided victory over an AP No.1 team since UCLA beat Houston 101-69 in the 1968 final four, according to Josh Dubow of the AP.

While the win was an outstanding effort and helps Florida in more ways than one, the Gators are focused on making sure they don’t get complacent as there’s much more to play for in 2025.

“It was a good, hard practice yesterday. Our guys understand that we’re not satisfied at all,” Florida head coach Todd Golden said on Friday.
