The SEC isn’t as strong as it has been in previous seasons,
but it is important for Florida to keep dominating the conference as well as
have a good showing in the SEC Conference Tournament so they are sitting pretty
when Selection Sunday rolls around. The Gators have 12 games left in the
regular season. Some will be a cake-walk, others will be more competitive, and
a few will be hard battles. Of their remaining games, these are the three I
think are the most important to win:
February 2nd vs. Ole Miss
Florida and Ole Miss are both currently 6-0 in the SEC which
is why this is a key matchup. Winning this game puts the Gators one step closer
to grabbing the top seed in the SEC Tournament.
February 19th at Missouri
After a 31 point victory mid-January, it doesn’t seem like
this should be a noteworthy game, but it is. A large victory at home doesn’t
mean much if you can’t prove yourself on the road too.
March 9th at Kentucky
Two of Florida’s remaining games are against Kentucky, but
the road game is the most significant. It is the finally regular season game
for both teams and the young Kentucky team can do a lot of growing up before
then.
