Good to see them more confident. If your not confident you chances of winning are far less.
Kentucky started the season ranked No. 1 in most polls, but it was Florida that ended the year No. 1 and unbeaten in Southeastern Conference play.
That’s why the Wildcats wouldn’t deny they were looking forward to a third meeting with the Gators in Sunday’s Southeastern Conference Tournament championship game. Florida advanced with a come from behind win over Tennessee Saturday while UK beat Georgia 70-58 to set up a third meeting between the two rivals.
“We are a different team now,” said Kentucky freshman guard Aaron Harrison. “So we’ll see how we can do. Mainly we just have to worry about playing like we can and not worry about what Florida does.”
What the Gators have done, though, is use an effective defense and balanced offense to beat UK 69-59 in Rupp Arena and 84-65 in Gainesville just a week ago to end the regular season.
“Everybody is glad we are playing them,” Kentucky sophomore Alex Poythress said. “It will be a war. We know that. But we think we can stay in the game and be right there. They are a good team and play good team ball. But we are looking forward to the game. We know we are playing better now than we were even a week ago. We just want a chance to get after them.”

I was watching the Florida/Tennessee game yesterday and was hoping that Florida won. I want another crack at them as well.
On a side note, I was really impressed with UT's uniforms yesterday. They were pretty sweet. They definitely need to stay away from that solid ugly orange.

Isn't that the truth, orange is one ugly color.
