Kenny Payne & Wildcats talk Florida, Reid Travis, final home game & more

The 2018-19 regular season will come to a close Saturday when the No. 6 Kentucky Wildcats host the Florida Gators.

Saturday’s game will be a rematch of a February 2nd battle between the two schools that saw Kentucky erase an 11-point second-half deficit and defeat the Gators by a final score of 65-54 in Gainesville.

This time around, the stakes will be far higher, as both teams need wins for their postseason standing. Kentucky is looking to secure a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament, while Florida needs a resume-building win that guarantees them a spot in the dance.
