Junior Vernon Macklin scored 21 points and had nine rebounds, but Florida fell 64-60 to Vanderbilt (No. 19 ESPN/USA Today, No. 13 AP) on Tuesday night.
Coach Billy Donovan’s team had several chances to pull off an upset. But Macklin missed a free throw, sophomore Erving Walker missed a short jumper and freshman Kenny Boynton missed a 3-pointer with 10 seconds remaining.
Florida turned the game with a 16-2 run midway through the second half, and Boynton did most of the work.
