What you need to know about Florida
Florida was able to grind out a solid win over the Georgia Bulldogs this past Saturday, winning 92-84. The Gators got double-digit scoring from five players: Tre Mann (24), Noah Locke (16), Colin Castleton (14), Tyree Appleby (14), and Omar Payne (10). Mann has led the team in scoring since Keyontae Johnson (heart) collapsed on the sideline last month and is now averaging 14.7 points per game this season. He also leads Florida in assists per game (4.1) and ranks second on the team in rebounds per game (5.3).
The Gators are 7-1 in their last eight games when playing as the favorite. However, Florida is just 1-5 against the spread in its last six games against Vanderbilt at home.
What you need to know about Vanderbilt
Meanwhile, Vanderbilt suffered a grim 92-71 defeat to the Arkansas Razorbacks this past Saturday. The losing side was boosted by guard Maxwell Evans, who had 14 points along with five rebounds. Scotty Pippen Jr. also had 15 points and five assists in the loss and he's been a dynamic playmaker for the Commodores all season long.
Pippen is averaging 20.6 points and 5.3 assists per game this season and he stuffed the stat sheet during a December loss to Florida. Pippen had 18 points, six assists, three rebounds, three steals and two blocked shots in a 91-72 loss, but he'll have to have a better shooting day after going just 6-for-16 overall and 0-for-4 from the 3-point line in that contest.
