The Florida Gators are riding a three-game win streak and sit firmly on the top-16 seed line, with a strong 17-6 overall record and 8-2 mark in the SEC. They welcome the Kentucky Wildcats to the Stephen C. O'Connell Center, where a win would bolster their already impressive resume. Kentucky, projected as a top-4 seed, boasts a 17-7 record and 8-3 conference mark, but their NET ranking of 28 lags behind Florida's 9. The Wildcats' quad record, although respectable, shows a slight vulnerability in Quad 1 games, with a 5-6 record.
