Second Half Struggles Lead To 65-54 Loss To Kentucky

Things were looking positive for the Gators at halftime with a 4-point lead but after getting thoroughly out-executed in the second frame they ultimately fell to the rival Kentucky Wildcats by a score of 65-54. Not only did Florida have a 4-point cushion at the half but a run marked by solid offensive execution ballooned that lead up to 11. Considering the fact they ended up losing by 11, you can see how the wheels really fell off. Closing the game on a 34-12 run Kentucky never allowed the Gators to get comfortable with the lead and was the team that played with a lot more confidence than the Florida roster who has let multiple double digit leads slip this season.
