Florida Gators basketball on Friday, in conjunction with the Southeastern Conference, announced its complete schedule for the upcoming 2020-21 season. Though the season will start a bit later than usual due to ongoing concerns about the COVID-19 pandemic, Florida will attempt to play a significant slate of 27 games, including 18 in league play.

Among the nonconference games the Gators will play this season include a two-game stint at the Mohegan Sun Casino on Thanksgiving weekend, an opening road game at Oklahoma on Dec. 2, a trip to Florida State on Dec. 12 and the SEC/Big-12 Challenge against West Virginia on Jan. 30.

Florida will play three games before its home opener on Dec. 6 against Stetson, a game that replaces a scheduled huge matchup with UConn on the slate. The Gators will not play a Power Five opponent at home until its second game of the SEC schedule against LSU on Jan. 2.

In addition to its annual home-and-home series against Georgia, Kentucky and Vanderbilt, this year Florida will also see LSU and Tennessee twice each.

Let’s take a look at the entire 2020-21 schedule.
