Gators Drop Final Regular Season Game To Kentucky

In their final regular season game of the year the Gators fell behind early and were never able to catch up, ultimately losing to the Kentucky Wildcats by a score of 71-63. With 7 minutes remaining the Wildcats were well in control leading the Gators by 14 but Florida clawed their way back to pull the game within 6 with 53 seconds left. A Phlandrous Fleming three-point attempt was Florida’s last opportunity to make it a game but it missed and the Wildcats held on for the win. With the loss the Gators finish 9-9 in the SEC and will await to see their seed in next week’s SEC Tournament based on the results from a few games still to be played on Saturday.
