No. 7 Florida clinched a share of the Southeastern Conference title with a 111-77 rout of 20th-ranked Arkansas, powered by Thomas Haugh's 22 points and Rueben Chinyelu's 17th double-double. The Gators dominated both ends, building a 30-point lead early and holding the Razorbacks to just 22 points in the second half. Haugh and Chinyelu, alongside Alex Condon, controlled the paint, outrebounding Arkansas 49-30.

Billy Richmond III led the Razorbacks with 22 points, but the loss extended John Calipari's worst SEC defeat streak to six games. Florida closed out February unbeaten and locked up their first regular-season title since 2014, remaining two games ahead of Alabama with two to play.
