Know Your Enemy: Tennessee Volunteers

The Florida Gators football team is on the road this week for a matchup against No. 8 Tennessee in Knoxville, where the Volunteers narrowly defeated the Gators 38-33 in their last meeting at Neyland Stadium in 2022. Following its second consecutive victory, the Gators are carrying a bit of momentum into Rocky Top, whereas the Vols will be seeking to bounce back from an unexpected upset loss on the road Saturday to unranked Arkansas.
