Gators hit the road to face Georgia with NCAA Tournament hopes hanging in the balance

GAINESVILLE — Painful as it was to watch, the Florida Gators' loss Saturday to Alabama still hurt two days later.

A 77-72 home loss to Alabama and abysmal 28.6-percent shooting performance left the Gators edging toward the proverbial NCAA Tournament bubble.

But don't bother Mike White with the latest RPI or news from the world of bracketology. UF's first-year coach has more pressing issues.

The Gators (16-9, 7-5 SEC) hit the road to face Georgia (14-9, 7-5) at 9 p.m. Tuesday. The game will air on ESPN.
