Todd Golden’s team brings an 18-6 overall record along with a 9-2 conference mark into play, holding the No. 14 spot in both the USA TODAY Sports Coaches Poll<\/a> and AP Top 25<\/a> this week, along with a 3-seed in the major bracketologies<\/a>. Florida’s lone home loss this season came at the hands of the Auburn Tigers<\/a> three weeks ago.<\/p>\n Mark Pope’s squad holds a 17-7 total tally while winning eight of their 11 SEC games so far. The Coaches Poll had no room for them among its top 25 (UK is the de facto No. 26 team with 30 votes), but the AP voters brought them back into the fold at No. 25; Kentucky’s bracketology outlooks hover around a 6-seed currently.<\/p>\n Watch Florida vs. Kentucky with Fubo free trial<\/a> Florida vs. Kentucky will be broadcast nationally on ABC on Saturday, Feb. 14. Karl Ravech and Jimmy Dykes will call the game from the sidelines inside the O’Connell Center.

This Wildcat team is back on the rise and has some wind behind its sails coming into Gainesville, and despite the lopsided betting odds, could easily sneak up on Florida.<\/p>\n However, the likelihood of that happening feels pretty slim, especially after how well this team has performed on the road these past couple of weeks. Coming home to the Rowdy Reptiles should fuel Golden’s gang to yet another double-digit SEC victory.<\/p>\n PREDICTION: Florida 89, Kentucky 70<\/p>\n Follow us @GatorsWire<\/a> on X, formerly known as Twitter, as well as Bluesky<\/a>, and like our page on Facebook<\/a> to follow ongoing coverage of Florida Gators<\/a> news, notes and opinions.<\/p>\n Our team of savvy editors independently handpicks all recommendations.
