FAYETTEVILLE -- When it comes to SEC play, no team is making it tougher to hit three-point baskets than Florida.
The Gators lead the SEC in three-point defense in conference games, holding their eight opponents to 25.7 percent (38 of 143).
Vanderbilt has the highest percentage at 33.3 against Florida on 3-of-9 shooting. Texas A&M has made the most three-point baskets going 7 of 20.
Georgia Coach Mark Fox, whose Bulldogs hit 2 of 12 three-pointers in a 77-63 loss to the Gators, said 6-11 sophomore John Egbunu -- a transfer from South Florida who redshirted last season -- gives Florida a strong rim protector and that the team has bought into playing tough defense for new Coach Mike White.
