Florida vs. Tennessee, Game Thread: Gators invade forbidding Rocky Top
Arden Barnes-USA TODAY Sports The Florida men’s basketball team falling to Missouri at the buzzer on Wednesday helped clarify what awaits them at the 2021 SEC Tournament, and Missouri falling to LSU on Saturday put the picture entirely into focus: If Florida wins its final game of the regular season this Sunday against Tennessee, it will be the league’s No. 4 seed and enjoy a double-bye in Nashville; if it loses in Knoxville, the Gators will be the No. 5 seed.
Those sorts of stakes being what’s on the line for a trip to Thompson-Boling Arena certainly creates even more reason to be concerned for these Gators.
