That’s not a shabby win. You literally had to be a Final Four team to beat the ‘96 Cats.

“Kentucky 1996 SEC Tournament...It gave us the confidence we needed to make our Final Four Run.”
If you back up to 1995, State was trailing Florida 38-22 in the second half and we were getting pummeled by the Gators.
Then Daryl Wilson caught fire and we ended the game on a 48-9 run to win 70-47.
That game is what spurred State on to the Sweet Sixteen in 1995 and then on to the Final Four in 1996.
A 48-9 run and Florida was coming off a great season the previous year. That stretch of that particular game gave the team confidence that they could win any game. Later that same season we beat UK in Rupp arena.
But it all started with that comeback against Florida improbable as it was at the time.
