Kentucky will look to build on its four-game winning streak in the SEC, this time with a head-to-head battle vs. Florida set to take place late Saturday evening inside Rupp Arena.
The 13-9 Gators may not look overly threatening on paper, but the reality of the situation is that first-year head coach Todd Golden has his team playing terrific basketball as of late, specifically coming off a statement 67-54 victory at home vs. No. 2 Tennessee. It was a game in which Florida found itself down six midway through the second half, but stormed back on a 29-10 run to close out the double-digit win, holding the Volunteers to just one field goal in their final 10 attempts and no makes in the final 2:34.
