With their victory against South Carolina last Saturday, the SEC race has found itself in a three-way tie.

When the UF gymnastics team competes in the NCAA Championships on April 20, you can be damned sure I’ll be watching on ESPN. It’s one of the most entertaining spectacles in college athletics, and you’d be foolish to tune out if you’re not busy.
