The Volunteers have won 6 of their last 7 home games against Florida.
While Florida 2nd leading scorer Kenny Boynton has struggled in the last 7 games only shooting 34.6% from the floor, but Mike Rosario has stepped up averaging 16.2 ppg on over 50% shooting in his last 5 games.
Tennessee is led by G Jordan McRae (14.9 ppg), who has scored 23 points and 34 points in his last 2 games and backcourt mate Trae Golden (12.3 ppg) is coming off a career high 32 points in the OT win over Texas A&M.
Volunteers F Jarnell Stokes (12.8 ppg 9 rpg) has been hot averaging 16.5 ppg and 11 rpg in his last 8 games and scored 20 points and pulled down 16 boards in the Texas A&M game. Florida leading rebounder Patric Young (10.3 ppg 6.5 rpg) will need some help on the boards tonight with 2nd leading rebounder Will Yeguete still out with a knee injury.
With 16 wins the Volunteers need a strong finish and may need to get far in the SEC tournament to get a Big Dance berth and a win over a top 10 team would look great on their NCAA Tournament resume.
In some betting trends for this SEC match up Florida is 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games, 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games vs. a team with a winning S.U. record, and they have an Under record of 3-1 in their last 4 games.
Tennessee is 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games, 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games vs. a team with a winning S.U. record, and they have an Over record of 5-2 in their last 7 home games.
Jason’s Pick: Tennessee is 8-3 ATS in their last 11 home games against Florida and while they may not win tonight they will continue their solid play and give the Gators a good game and, at least, cover the spread.
