Florida basketball hits the road for its final two games of the regular season away from the O’Connell Center on Saturday, with its first stop in Athens to take on the Georgia Bulldogs. The Gators triumphed in their first meeting, 72-63, and need another win against its bitter rivals to keep their NCAA Tournament hopes alive.
The ‘Dawgs have had a season to forget, putting up a 6-22 overall record while winning just a single game in Southeastern Conference play — a home win against the Alabama Crimson Tide on Jan. 25 — against 14 losses. Those numbers make Florida’s tumultuous season seem tame in comparison, as the Gators look to return to the .500 mark in SEC and improve to 18-11 overall with a win.
