The Florida Gators faced the Vanderbilt Commodores in Nashville on Saturday, and after overcoming No. 16 Alabama in an emotional victory in Gainesville, they had 12 lead changes and 12 ties.
To end the 2023–24 regular season, Tyrin Lawrence, Ven-Allen Lubin, and a tough Vanderbilt team defeated Florida, 79–78, on the road, despite having a significant shooting percentage lead on the day.
For all of the first half, both sides were within two possessions of the opposition despite their early positional jockeying, which included a notable 7-0 run exchange.
Florida capitalised on Vanderbilt’s 26% shooting percentage in the first half, led by their explosive backcourt pair of Zyon Pullin and Walter Clayton Jr.
