The Gators shook two monkeys off their backs Tuesday night.
There’s more on the line for the Gators tonight than just a chance to break a rival’s recent streak of dominance over them.
OXFORD, Miss. — While Vernon Macklin was almost solely responsible for keeping Florida close in the first half, Erving Walker put the game away in the final minute.

Erving Walker made zero field goals Thursday night, but he finished just three points shy of leading the Gators in scoring.
Florida has its back against the wall.
During the offseason, Billy Donovan told Erving Walker this season would be the toughest of his life.
After a slow start, Florida looked like it had a chance to snag another big nonconference win Saturday.

Entering one of the most important games of the season, Florida is in a familiar position: on the bubble.
COLUMBIA, S.C. — Last year at South Carolina, one missed free throw led to a heartbreaking loss for Florida. Wednesday night, trouble at the line brought about another tough defeat in Colonial Life Arena.
There’s no easy way to stop South Carolina guard Devan Downey.
Sophomore center Kenny Kadji will undergo surgery to repair a bulging disk in his back Wednesday.
Chandler Parsons garnered plenty of praise earlier this season for his late-game heroics, but he has proven to be adept at far more than just last-second 75-footers and buzzer-beating three-pointers.
With one of the best big men in the Southeastern Conference coming to Gainesville, no one expected Vernon Macklin to play the best game of his career at Florida.

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — Florida’s game-winning play came on a floater that Billy Donovan thought “rolled around the rim forever,” but the game-saving play came seconds later from a player who scored no points Thursday night.
At least one apple didn’t fall too far from Billy Donovan’s coaching tree.
As hard as they are to forget, Billy Donovan doesn’t want his players dwelling on the contested jumper Scotty Hopson drained or the way Alex Tyus’ last-second shot rolled off the rim.
All season, Billy Donovan has talked about making sure his team has at least a chance to win at the end games.
