The Kentucky Wildcats face another major road test Saturday when they take on the Florida Gators.
Sitting at 17-3 and 6-1 in SEC play, Kentucky is riding high in the midst of a seven-game winning streak, which has seen them ascended into the top 10 of every major ranking, not to mention put themselves back in the discussion for a 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament, A loss in Gainesville would severely damage those hopes with teams like Duke, Virginia, Gonzaga and Tennessee starting to distance themselves for 1 seeds.
Florida, on the other hand, is 12-8 and 4-3 in SEC play, putting them on the fringe of making the Big Dance if the season ended today.
