Tonight in the O’Connell Center two teams heading in opposite directions will clash on the parquet when the Florida Gators host the Tennessee Volunteers in a battle between two Southeastern Conference rivals.
After winning its first two games in the aftermath of Keyontae Johnson‘s terrifying collapse on the court against FSU back, the Gators have drifting like a rudderless ship, losing three of their last four games in conference play. Meanwhile, the Vols have surged since getting embarrassed by the Alabama Crimson Tide, winning their last three while holding on to a No. 10 ranking.
Things do not look great for the Gators heading into the game, and the betting odds are against them, but they play the games for a reason and Florida just might eke out its biggest win of the season if everything goes perfectly.
Just in case it does, here is a look at how to follow tonight’s action when the Gators host the Volunteers in the O’Dome.
