No. 1 Kentucky completed a perfect season after a 67-50 win against Florida in Saturday's regular-season finale. The 31-0 Wildcats, though, know their job is far from over.
"We take pride but our journey is not done," said freshman forward Trey Lyles, who had 14 points and six rebounds in the win, via ESPN . "We have a lot of work to do and we only have two guaranteed games left in our season, so we have to make sure we go out there and play hard and together. It just shows how great these guys are on the team, how much we care for one another and how much we want to win."
Lyles's teammate, center Willie Cauley-Stein, echoed those sentiments.
"Now, it's do or die, it's win or go home, just have a lot of fun doing it," Cauley-Stein told the Associated Press earlier in the week. "This is the funnest time of the year. ... From the first workout, now it's all about business. That's what you play for."
Florida (16-16), meanwhile, advanced to the quarterfinals after Wednesday's 69-61 win against Alabama. The Gators had their two-game winning streak snapped by Kentucky in the regular-season finale but have a chance to pull off a major upset on Friday. Moreover, Florida coach Billy Donovan believes playing Kentucky for a third time this season may work in his team's favor.
"I think we're the only team so far that will have played them three times this year," Donovan said. "So at least there's some familiarity on a quick turnaround. But we'll try to make some corrections, things that we need to get better at and build on. Try to do some different things. Not so much differently, but try to do things better."
