Currently on a run of seven wins in nine games the Florida Gators (20-8, 10-5 SEC) will get a chance to build on their NCAA Tournament resume on March 2nd in Columbia when they take on the surprise South Carolina Gamecocks (23-5, 11-4 SEC) who are #18 in the AP Poll. As it currently stands the Gators are in a comfortable spot NCAA Tournament-wise, currently holding the highest 7-seed according to Bracket Matrix. With South Carolina currently 47th in the NET and the game taking place on the road this will be a quadrant-1 opportunity for the Gators, something they need to continue to climb in seeding.
