How do you rank our Out of Conference opponents in regards to which would be the best wins:

While Florida finished #9 in the final 2012 poll,


at Arizona --- finished w/ #3 ranked class (#3C: 7'0 Tarczewski, #2PF:Jerrett, #3PF: Ashley, etc.) after UCLA & UK!
Wisconsin -------------------------> finished #12
Georgetown (Jax) ------------------> finished #17
Marquette -------------------------> finished #10 in 2012
Florida State-----------------------> finished #15

Based on last year's finish and a too soon espn bracketology (http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/bracketology/_/year/2013), the ranking of 'best wins' for Florida:

1. Wisconsin (projected #3 seed); can potentially defeat #1 Indiana, top 10's Michigan, Michigan St, Ohio St & others!
2. Marquette (projected #5 seed)
3. at Arizona (projected #6 seed) ;additionally, UF will need a good road win on their resume and 'Zona out of the Pac12 will be regarded highly especially if they can take down UCLA!

4. (@Jax)Georgetown (projected #8)
5. Florida St (projected #9 seed)

It's interesting that UF will play a Big 10, Big East (two of them), Pac12, & an ACC team this season! The Gators will take on a challenge from every major conference except the Big12 (of course w/ the new members Missouri & Texas A&M...).

Add in Kansas State and you have 6 games against other power conference teams.

I just want at least 3 wins out of the 6. Of course for seeding, wins on the road like at Zona or at FSU or at KSU would each help seeding. Also winning at Yale is important for this reason too.

This is going to be a very experienced team, which could well mean winning tough games on neutral or opponent's courts, unlike last year, where such victories were not the most common phenomenon.

For a good seed, victories in at least two of those five games appear a necessity, and, of course, FSU has to be a victory (you have to defeat your arch rival in one of the two major sports, and football is 0-2 during the past two years with another likely loss this year).

Next to that, any of Georgetown, Marquette or Arizona would be excellent victories.
