With Florida’s NCAA Tournament hopes still up in the air the Gators get just what the doctor ordered, a chance to play one of the top teams in the sport and land a marquee win that would completely change the outlook of their NCAA Tournament resume.
On Saturday the Gators (19-11, 9-8 SEC) welcome the Kentucky Wildcats (24-6, 13-4 SEC) to town, giving them an opportunity at a huge win that they desperately need to get on the right side of the NCAA Tournament bubble.
As things currently stand the Gators are on the wrong side of the bubble according to, well, pretty much every reputable bracketologist.
