Florida debuted at No. 19 in the latest Associated Press poll Monday. UF vaulted into the rankings after an 84-59 blowout win over then-No. 7 Tennessee last Wednesday and a 54-51 victory at No. 14 Georgia on Sunday.
Interim coach Kelly Rae Finley and the Gators have won seven of their last eight games, including upsets over No. 25 Texas A&M, No. 23 Kentucky and No. 11 LSU. Their lone loss came against top-ranked South Carolina.
