The No. 2 Florida Gators (22-3) will aim to extend their winning streak to five games when they welcome the Oklahoma Sooners (16-9) to Exactech Arena at the Stephen C. O’Connell Center on Tuesday.
The Sooners have put together a solid season, picking up notable victories over Arizona, Louisville, Michigan, and Arkansas. However, they’ve also stumbled in SEC play, suffering key losses against Alabama, Texas A&M (twice), Georgia, Texas, Auburn, and Tennessee. The hot start they enjoyed has been cooled by conference competition, and they’ll need a huge performance from Jalon Moore to stand a chance against the red-hot Gators on the road.
As for Florida, they’ve been one of the top teams in the country, boasting major wins over Wake Forest, North Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Georgia, Auburn, and Mississippi State. Their only setbacks came against Kentucky, Missouri, and Tennessee. With Walter Clayton Jr. orchestrating the offense, the Gators remain in the hunt for a top tournament seed, meaning every victory is crucial to keeping that position intact.

Will Richard has been in rhythm, shooting 50% or better in four of his last six contests. The senior guard has been a steady contributor, putting up 13 PPG. However, Alex Condon’s status remains up in the air after suffering an ankle injury last week. The sophomore forward has been averaging 10.6 PPG, and if he’s unable to go, the Gators will have a noticeable void in their frontcourt rotation.
