A look at Florida men’s basketball’s conference schedule

Florida men’s basketball has had mixed results against the non-conference slate this season, but now it’s time to tackle the SEC as conference play begins.

After a 7-5 start to the 2022-23 men’s basketball season, the Florida Gators are ready to tackle the conference schedule.

The Gators are clearly in a rebuilding year under new head coach Todd Golden and things haven’t gone great against Quadrant 1 and 2 opponents so far. Almost half of the SEC is ranked in the top 25 of the USA TODAY Sports Coaches Poll, and Missouri is making a push to break into the rankings.

Florida won’t have an easy go against most of the conference, but the Gators do have a chance to establish themselves as a middle-of-the-pack team. The team will also get a chance to go up against its former head coach, Mike White, who made the move to Georgia over the offseason. His return to Gainesville is on Jan. 7 and should be one of the more highly-anticipated games of the year.

Here’s a look at Florida’s conference schedule for the 2022-23 season.
