Regardless of the outcome, Florida is assured a trip to the NCAA Tournament in its second season under coach Todd Golden. But the Gators could improve their seeding with a run in Nashville. UF is currently projected as a seven seed in the NCAA Tournament in most mock bracket websites.
A loss Thursday could drop UF to an 8 or 9 seed. Florida is coming off a 79-78 loss at Vanderbilt in its regular season finale.
"We feel like when we're playing our best we can compete and beat anybody so that's the goal,"" Golden said. "Obviously, having to play four games makes that a lot more difficult and you have to take it one day at a time."
