SEC slate for Florida
The Southeastern Conference announced the home and road pairings for the Gators and the rest of the league teams in late June.
In addition to the annual home-and-home series with Georgia, Kentucky and Vanderbilt, Florida will play a home-and-home series against LSU and Texas A&M as well.
UF also hosts Ole Miss, Missouri, South Carolina and Tennessee in the Stephen C. O’Connell Center, while hitting the road against Alabama, Arkansas, Auburn and Mississippi State. The SEC has yet to announce times and dates for these matchups.
