The gators last won at Rupp with a front court of the Bulls All-Star Joakim Noah, Hawks All-Star Al Horford, and T'Wolves One-Man Fast Break Corey Brewer in 2007. The Gators taking no prisoners go into Rupp and weather that Freshman Hypes Up Storm to pull out a 69-59 convincing "W". Florida played like a team that has played together a few semesters...imagine that!  

The gators down 31-28 at the half put a 41-28 beat down on the 'Cats after Concessions behind their stellar and underrated Back Court of Casey Prather and Scott Wilbekin. With the cote 47-46 Gators at the 8:30 mark Prather and Wilbekin combined to score Florida's 17 of their last 22 to close out Kentucky at Rupp. Those Florida Guards clearly outplayed the Hyped-Up Harrison Twins as Prather and Wilbekin combined for 47 of the Gators 69. They were 13 of 19 from the field and 19 of 24 from the Stripe.

The Harrison Twins combined for 23 points as Andrew Harrison had 20 of the 23. They also added five boards and six assists. SF James Young added 19 points to go along with five boards and Julius Randle goes double-double with 13 and 13. Young has been to me the best Freshman All-Around as Randle has showed no Perimeter Face-Up Mid Game and he needs that leaving after this season. The 'Cats 13 turnovers and a lackluster 14 of 23 from the Line didn't help their cayuse one bit.

The Gators move to 22-3 and 12-0 in the SEC as the 'Cats fall to 19-6 and 9-3 in the Sec as their chance at running down UF is null and void during the Regular Season.
