Florida Gators chase rare sweep of Kentucky Wildcats

GAINESVILLE — The last time Florida coach Mike White was in Rupp Arena, UF found itself losing 42-18 to Kentucky with just under six minutes remaining.

In the first half.

“It wasn’t a great experience,” White said on Friday.

But after the Gators’ 88-66 home win against the Wildcats on Feb. 4, it’s safe to say White and his players have washed the bad taste from last year’s loss out of their mouths.

Still, Florida isn’t expecting a repeat performance of that win against Kentucky.

“We’re not 22 points better than them,” White said.
