Where Florida stands in NET rankings following SEC finals loss
Florida basketball made a tremendous run in the Southeastern Conference Tournament this month, but alas, hit a roadblock in the championship game against the Auburn Tigers, who prevailed over the Gators to earn the crown, 86-67.
Following the loss, the Orange and Blue fell three spots overall in the NET rankings from before Sunday’s game to No. 29. Todd Golden’s gang now sits between the No. 28 Indiana State Sycamores and No. 30 Texas Longhorns.
Here’s how the quadrant system breaks things up:
Quadrant 1: Home 1-30, Neutral 1-50, Away 1-75
Quadrant 2: Home 31-75, Neutral 51-100, Away 76-135
Quadrant 3: Home 76-160, Neutral 101-200, Away 135-240
Quadrant 4: Home 161-353, Neutral 201-353, Away 241-353
The Gators are now 6-8 against Quadrant 1 opponents, 4-2 against Quadrant 2 opponents, 9-1 against Quadrant 3 opponents and 5-0 against Quadrant 4 opponents. They finished the SEC Tournament with a 24-11 record overall and a 14-8 mark against Southeastern Conference opponents.
Florida is the No. 7 seed in the South Region this year according to the official NCAA Tournament bracket and will face the winner of the Boise State Broncos-Colorado Buffaloes play-in game.
