    As the realization sets in across the country that college football is officially on hiatus, the time has come for basketball to take center stage.

    26/12/2018 Duration: 45min

    Given that the Gators were 4-7 and hanging out at home with their families at this time a year ago, it's a testament to the job that Dan Mullen has done that they are in Atlanta getting ready to play in one of the six most prestigious bowls in college football.
