The official start to the Florida Gators basketball season has arrived. Florida will take on Navy for the first time since 1961 on Friday at 9:30 p.m. in Annapolis, Maryland as a part of the Veteran’s Day Classic. The team has been in Maryland since Wednesday, spending the past few days touring Navy’s campus and meeting Navy students and veterans.
Unlike Florida, Navy has not had a chance to take the court in an exhibition game before starting their season.
