Aggies Men's Hoops vs. Florida Gators: How to Watch, Betting Odds

The Aggies remain home for an SEC matchup with the Florida Gators on Saturday afternoon at Reed Arena.

The Aggie's men's basketball team stays at home for the last of three at Reed Arena hoping to bounce back from a disappointing 71-68 loss to Ole Miss on Jan. 27.

Since beginning the season with five straight wins, the Aggies have struggled to find any momentum, winning just seven of their last 15 contests, and never more than two in a row.

The Aggies have struggled with foul shots this season and coach Buzz Williams knows that needs to improve.

"You can always point to a myriad of different things," Williams said after the Ole Miss loss. "We need to shoot a higher percentage from the free throw line. We are committed to doing that. We've been working on that every day as a team and individually. 

"Our guys have been great in that regard. But you're fighting such an invisible margin and to be up seven in a game like this with four minutes to play you need to win. But if you shoot 22 free throws you need to make more than 12 too, so there's a lot of things you could point to."

Meanwhile, the Gators have had their share of streaks this season. They've won four in a row, and have enjoyed winning streaks of three and six earlier in the season.
