Florida Versus Tennessee Basketball Preview

Going into the weekend there were three undefeated teams in college basketball but after Florida fell to Kentucky and Oklahoma lost to Alabama only one remained:The Tennessee Volunteers.That means that things won’t get easier for the Gators (13-1, 0-1 SEC) following their first loss of the season as they play the 14-0 (1-0 SEC) Vols, a team that some argue is the best team in the country.

Last season the Volunteers made an Elite Eight before being knocked out by Purdue, and when you look at the players they returned and what they brought in (more on that later) it seemed like they could do the unthinkable and actually be even better than a season where they finished 5th in KenPom.
