Miami and No. 10 Florida, in-state foes who have not played since November 2019, will renew their rivalry Sunday night with a matchup in Jacksonville, Fla.

As the defending national champion, Florida (2-1) has learned a valuable lesson in its first three contests. The Gators know they will get every squad's best shot each game.

In their recent outing against Florida State, the Gators received a ton of body blows from the Seminoles and hot-shooting transfer guard Robert McCray V (29 points) but were able to hang on for a 78-76 win over the hated Seminoles.

Thomas Haugh led the way with 20 points for Florida on 7-of-15 shooting, including 2 of 6 from deep. He also pulled down 13 rebounds, as the club used its massive size advantage to a 58-36 margin on the boards.
