Florida basketball adding this Ivy League school to 2025-26 schedule
The Florida basketball program is finalizing an agreement that will see it host the Dartmouth Big Green during the upcoming 2025-26 campaign, according to college hoops bracketologist Rocco Miller of Bracketeer. The reported date for the matchup is tentatively set for Monday, Dec. 29, inside the O'Connell Center.
Once the agreement is set in stone, it will give the Gators their second solo matchup set so far for the coming fall.
Currently, the Orange and Blue have a date set with the Arizona Wildcats to open the season on Monday, Nov. 3, in Las Vegas. The team is also locked into the Rady Children's Invitational from Nov. 27-28, where they will compete among a four-team field that includes the Providence Friars, TCU Horned Frogs and Wisconsin Badgers, in San Diego.
Last year, the Big Green finished the season with an even 14-14 record, which included an 8-6 mark against fellow Ivy League schools. Dartmouth's season ended in the conference tournament, where it lost to the Cornell Big Red in the semifinals.
Florida took home the championship trophy after winning both the Southeastern Conference Tournament and the NCAA Tournament, finishing with a 36-4 record overall and a 14-4 tally against SEC opposition.
