It is going to be another big Saturday in Lexington. The Kentucky Wildcats fell short in their previous Saturday showcase game against Kansas, but will get another chance at 8:30 p.m. on ESPN against the Florida Gators. Despite the loss to Kansas, the Wildcats are still riding a five-game SEC winning streak and currently find themselves on the right side of the NCAA Tournament bubble at 15-7, 6-3. Meanwhile, the Gators enter Rupp Arena with a 13-9, 6-3 mark. This game has serious NCAA Tournament and SEC standings implications for both programs.
Coach Todd Golden wasted no time parlaying his success at San Francisco into a head coaching job in the Southeastern Conference.
