Everything that could go wrong, went wrong for the Gators in Knoxville, Tennessee, when they lost 63-58 to the Tennessee Volunteers Saturday afternoon.
Florida is trying to prove last year’s Final Four run wasn’t a fluke.
After a Wednesday night game where the once-reeling Gators convincingly defeated LSU 81-66, it’s apparent that UF is approaching the end of the regular season on a high note.
LSU turned the ball over, and then freshman Tre Mann had it in his hands. He threw it down to a streaking Ques Glover, who was free on a two-on-one. Glover took a peek at the rim and threw the ball up where it found the hands of forward Keyontae Johnson, who slammed it down and sent the crowd at the O’Dome into a frenzy.
The margin of error for the Gators is shrinking.

It all started with some boos.
It’s not the World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party, but tonight’s matchup on the hardwood between Florida (13-8, 5-3 SEC) and Georgia (12-9, 2-6 SEC) still carries great importance as the SEC season reaches its median for both teams.
