No. 2 Florida hasn't lost since Dec. 2 and head into Wednesday's contest looking for their 18th straight win. The Gators (23-2) are coming off a 69-59 win on Saturday over No. 18 Kentucky. With March around the corner, finishing the regular season strong is imperative to Florida. Their next obstacle is Auburn.
The two teams met on Jan. 18 at Auburn, where Florida escaped with a 68-61 win. Florida knows one key to winning again will be to shut down Auburn's backcourt of Chris Denson and KT Harrell, both of whom impacted the first game with 21 points and 18 points, respectively.
"I can't remember how many points they had against us last time, but I knew they went off a little bit and they are capable of going off with big nights, both of them," Gators senior guard Scottie Wilbekin said, via ESPN. "So we got to do a better job this game of knowing their straight-line drives and just play better on-ball defense."
Auburn (12-11) ended their two-game losing streak on Saturday with a 92-82 win against Mississippi State. Although the unranked Tigers are barely over .500, Florida coach Billy Donovan doesn't want his team underestimating them.
"They are playing really good basketball," said Donovan. "They've played everyone tough at home, it's not just us. They had a lead against Kentucky in the second half. They've beaten Alabama at home. They just beat Mississippi State at home and they scored 92 points.
"This is a team that has played very well and has given itself a chance. Whether it has been home or away, they have played really good basketball."
