Koulechov scores 23, Florida beats Mississippi State 71-54

GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- Jalen Hudson had one thing left to do after Florida's sixth consecutive victory.

"We got to wipe down everything with some Clorox and bleach," Hudson said.

It might have helped more a few weeks ago.

Egor Koulechov scored 23 points, including Florida's first 13 of the game, and the sick and short-handed Gators beat Mississippi State 71-54 on Wednesday night for their longest winning streak of the season.

Hudson added 12 points despite missing 10 of 13 shots, and Florida won its eighth straight against the Bulldogs (13-3, 1-2 Southeastern Conference).
