Florida finds intensity, loses discipline in loss to No. 3 Vols

The Florida men’s basketball team has looked like two vastly different teams for most of the season.

One, a flat — lethargic at times — group unable to make shots and maintain any sort of intensity down the stretch. The other, a unit able to establish offensive rhythms and capitalize off the energy that each guy brings to the court.

Both showed up against the Tennessee Volunteers on Saturday. The latter almost pulled off an upset against the No. 3 team in the country. The former was wildly inconsistent and made undisciplined mistakes that led to a 78-67 loss to Tennessee at the O’Connell Center.
