For two of the best teams in the country, Florida and Tennessee haven’t had a close game in either of their previous two matchups this season. The Gators handed Tennessee its first loss of the season in shocking fashion, winning 73-43. The Volunteers were the No. 1 team in the nation going into that first matchup. Tennessee got vengeance in the next matchup though, taking down the Gators 64-44.
In the game the Volunteers lost, they shot 21.4% from the field. The Gators shot 24.5% from the field when they lost. Dominant defense has won each of the past two times in a big way. Both teams have been dominant offensively in recent games. In their past five games, Florida is averaging 95.4 points, Tennessee is averaging 74.4.
The Gators will have a first-team All-American in Walter Clayton Jr. this season. The senior guard is averaging 21.3 points in his last four games, but hasn’t played well against Tennessee. He averaged 8.5 points in those two matchups, shooting 26% from the field.
The winner of this game will have the strongest case for the fourth one seed in the NCAA Tournament. Duke, Houston and Auburn have the first three essentially locked up, meaning this game serves as a massive deciding factor in the seeding.
