0:00On March 4, the 5th ranked Florida Gators kept their home schedule with a strong win over Mississippi State on Tuesday night. Rubin Chenyalu stood out, notching his 18th double-double of the season to tie a program record. In 31 minutes on the court, Chenyalu grabbed 16 rebounds to go with 11 points, 3 blocks, 2 assists and a steal.

Florida now sits at 24 wins and six losses overall, with a 15-2 mark in conference play that puts them alone at the top of the SEC standings ahead of Alabama and Arkansas. They head to Kentucky for their final regular season game on March 7 at 4 p.m. Eastern time, carrying plenty of momentum into the postseason.
