Florida Gators basketball loses heartbreaker at Mississippi State

The Florida Gators basketball team is stuck in a rut and it just can’t find a way out. For the third time in the first four SEC games, Florida found itself in a late battle and couldn’t close it out.

Mississippi State came into Tuesday’s game as the 24th ranked team in the country, but it was not in a good place after losing its previous two contests.

As both teams tried to get things back on track, it was the Bulldogs who ultimately came out victorious on their home court.

The Gators scored the first points of the game but were then subject to a 9-0 run by the Bulldogs over the next four minutes.
