The Florida Gators are midseason interruption veterans at this point in the 2020-21 season. Between the break following Keyontae Johnson’s collapse and COVID-19 protocols, the Gators have had 10 games canceled or postponed so far.
Most recently, the virus and contact tracing amongst the team forced Florida to postpone games at LSU and Tennessee. Then, an outbreak within Texas A&M postponed the contest scheduled for last Saturday.
While this two-week break between games was far from ideal, it is something Florida has experience with, and handled well previously.
“We’ve all kind of been here and done that,” said head coach Mike White.
