For all its accomplishments, the Florida Gators men’s basketball program still does not have a lot of wins over No. 2 teams — so its triumph over Tennessee earlier this week was a laurel to linger on.
But Florida also doesn’t have many wins over Kentucky at Rupp Arena, so Saturday night’s game in the Bluegrass State is an opportunity for something else worth crowing about.
And if Florida gets both of these dubs in one week, it’s going to be hard to talk about the NCAA Tournament field without mentioning the Gators.
