Game preview: Florida basketball set to host Georgia for sold-out contest

Take a look at how the two SEC rivals will lineup on Saturday afternoon. Tipoff is set for noon ET

Florida basketball returned to the Swamp this week and looked like they found their comfort zone, taking down the Mississippi State Bulldogs, 79-70, and building a two-game win streak on Wednesday night.

Now a new breed of Bulldogs is coming to Gainesville, but there’s a bit more personal beef between the programs.

The Georgia Bulldogs will visit the Gators on Saturday for an early afternoon sellout at Exactech Arena. UGA is on a roll this basketball season, standing at 14-5 with four conference wins.

Despite the better record, the Bulldogs are actually rated with a worse overall efficiency rating on the KenPom index. Florida is ranked at No. 35 with a plus-16.86 efficiency rating and Georgia is No. 70 with a plus-11.55 rating.

We’re expecting a nail-biter in the Swamp on Saturday, and here’s how a full rundown of how the teams will lineup.
