Florida and Vanderbilt met just two weeks ago, with the Gators’ loss to the Commodores thought to be the death blow to their NCAA Tournament hopes.
Vandy hosts the Gators this Saturday having bumped itself off the bubble more recently.
The Commodores had faint NCAA Tournament chances coming into this week, then promptly lost at SEC last-placer LSU, essentially knocking themselves out of at-large contention. And while that may not mean a lot for this game, it does mean that neither team is playing with realistic tourney hopes — something that could make for wackiness.
