Florida @ Oklahoma

Location: Norman, OK

Florida Gators — 15-5 (6-2 SEC)

Oklahoma Sooners — 8-11 (2-6 Big 12)

Match-up to watch: Jordan Woodard vs. Kasey Hill

Point guards take center stage for this contest. Woodard has been just about the only truly consistent Sooner as he averages 17.3 points, 5.3 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 2.2 steals per game. He also shoots 39 percent from deep. He is the difference between OU being awful and respectable most nights.

Hill should draw the on-ball assignment and will counter with a solid 9.2 points, 2.7 boards, 4.8 assists and 2.0 steals per game. The big difference with Hill is an awful 18 percent shooting rate from deep. Florida is a much better team, but Oklahoma has hung tough in every Big 12 game.

Prediction: Florida 68 Oklahoma 60
