In Chris Chiozza’s Madison Square Miracle, Florida has its seminal March Madness moment

The Florida Gators men’s basketball program has enjoyed an enormous amount of success on the court since 1994, when the Gators made their first Final Four.

That first appearance under Lon Kruger was followed up by an underachieving team failing to get out of the first round as a No. 10 seed in 1995, but the Gators would make four more Final Fours under Billy Donovan, and win two national titles consecutively. Florida has made eight Elite Eights in the last 23 NCAA Tournaments, seven in the last 16, and five in the last seven.
