The Florida Gators (3-3, 1-2 SEC) are preparing for a primetime conference matchup in The Swamp vs the Kentucky Wildcats (3-3, 1-3 SEC) on Saturday at 7:45 PM ET.

According to the new Wednesday conference availability report, the Gators have a pair of starters questionable to play and several depth pieces out for Saturday's game.

  • RB Treyaun Webb - Questionable
  • OL Austin Barber - Questionable
