The Florida Gators men’s basketball team is getting set to host the Vanderbilt Commodores this evening in the O’Connell Center in a matchup of two teams heading in opposite directions this season.

While the Gators have struggled at times — and it is hard not to when you are missing your SEC Preseason Player of the Year, Keyontae Johnson — they have shown some signs of brilliance over the past couple of games, including a marquee win over a top-10 ranked Tennessee Volunteers. Florida’s last two performances, in fact, earned head coach Mike White SEC Coach of the Week honors.

Tip off is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. EST in the O’Connell Center, Gainesville, Florida, and will be broadcast on SEC Network, livestreamed on the ESPN app and can be heard on the Gators Sports Network/XM 190. Here is everything you need to know below.
