The Florida Gators have not missed the NCAA Tournament since Kevin O’Sullivan took over the team in 2008 and that won’t change in 2019.
The Gators (33-24/13-17 SEC) made it close but ultimately their strength of schedule (3) and RPI (27) helped them make a 12th consecutive NCAA Regional. Unlike the previous five seasons the Gators will have to hit the road for the post season. Florida will travel to Lubbock, Texas where Texas Tech hosts for the fourth consecutive season.
The Red Raiders will open the regional against Army on Friday at 4 pm ET. Florida will play Dallas Baptist at 8 pm.
