Florida basketball is coming off its best win of the season, knocking off No. 8 Kentucky at Rupp Arena 94-91 in an intense, overtime thriller.
The Florida Gators (15-6, 5-3 SEC) will look to pick up another big road win and extend their win streak overall to five games when they play Saturday at Texas A&M.
Second-year Florida basketball coach Todd Golden is mindful of guarding against complacency heading into another tough road environment. Florida is 2-3 in true road games this season.
“If we feel like we’ve arrived or we feel like we can just walk into A&M and, you know, play, it ain’t gonna happen,” Golden said. “We’re going to get blasted. This is a really tough place to play, and, you know, this game will be just as challenging as our Kentucky game was.”

Texas A&M (12-8, 3-4 SEC) has been led by preseason All-SEC guard Wade Taylor IV, who is averaging 20.0 points and 3.8 assists per game, The Aggies could be without another starter in the backcourt, guard Tyrece Radford, who was arrested on Friday on charges of evading in a vehicle.
The game pits the top two rebounding teams in the SEC. Texas A&M leads the conference in rebounding margin at plus-10.0 and Florida is not far behind at plus-9.6.
“Obviously they’re a very physical team,” Florida junior guard Walter Clayton Jr. said. “So just being tough with the ball, getting open, being physical when getting open. I think our physicality is definitely going to play a big part into it.”
Florida starting forward Tyrese Samuel has posted nine double-doubles on the season and is coming off a 22-point, 13-rebound, 4-block effort in the Kentucky win. He’s the first player nationally since Tim Duncan to post 20 points, grab 10 rebounds and block 4 shots on the road against a Top 10 ranked opponent.
