After stepping into a challenging road-type environment in Charlotte to take down North Carolina the Florida Gators will have a much more comfortable setting back at home Saturday when they put their undefeated 11-0 record up against the North Florida Ospreys (7-5). There are four teams that remain undefeated in college basketball–Florida, Tennessee, Oklahoma, and Drake, and the Gators have an opportunity to outlast some of those teams starting with a buy game against North Florida.
North Florida has been somewhat of a regular non-conference opponent for the Gators with the Ospreys more than willing to take the short trip from Jacksonville to Gainesville.
