Florida will face LSU in the tournament’s quarterfinals. The Tigers are 19-9 on the season and finished the conference slate with a 9-7 record.

In January, the two teams met in Gainesville and LSU took a 77-68 win back to the Bayou.

The Gators finished with a 15-14 overall record and a 6-10 mark in league play. A .500 record clinches Florida’s eligibility to receive a post-season bid.
