Florida’s streak of nine straight NCAA Tournaments came to an end Sunday but the Gators will make it to the post-season for the eleventh straight year. The Gators will host San Diego State of the Mountain West Conference Wednesday at 9 p.m. in the first round of the National Invitation Tournament (NIT). This is the first time in the NIT for the Gators since Billy Donovan’s second year at Florida when the Gators lost a first round NIT game to Georgetown.
