Reaching the big dance, the NCAA Tournament, is the goal every season for the Florida men and Florida women. The last two years, the men came home with the NCAA title. Reaching this year's tourney is not a given. Florida's women also have plenty of work left in order to make the prestigious tournament.
FLORIDA MEN
OVERALL RECORD: 20-7
RPI: 57
Key Wins: Vanderbilt, Kentucky
Remaining Games (RPI in parentheses):
Feb. 27, at Georgia (130);
March 1, Mississippi State (46);
March 5, Tennessee (1);
March 9, at Kentucky (73)
What Florida needs to do: Winning three of its last four regular season games would likely clinch Florida's 10th straight NCAA Tournament appearance. If Florida splits the final four games, it will likely need to win a game or two in the SEC Tournament to keep its tournament string intact.
FLORIDA WOMEN
OVERALL RECORD: 16-10
RPI: No. 38
Key Wins: No. 44 Xavier, No. 48 TCU, No. 54 Auburn
Remaining Games (RPI in parentheses): Today vs. (86) South Carolina, Thursday at (1) Tennessee, March 2 at (120) Ole Miss
What Florida needs to do: Florida must win today against South Carolina and next week at Ole Miss to guarantee a .500 record in the SEC. The Gators would then need a win or two at the SEC Tournament to bolster its case. Florida is currently seventh in the SEC. If only six SEC teams get in, Florida could be the last one out.
