Rex GrossmanThe Houston Chronicle:

“You need a flowchart to keep track of all the subplots of today’s game between No. 2 Florida and No. 7 Tennessee at “The Swamp” — a berth in the Southeastern Conference championship game, a possible berth in the national championship game, bragging rights and a rematch of one of last year’s most controversial finishes.”

GoMemphis.com:

“The Gators have won 12 of the past 15 games against Tennessee and the Vols have lost seven straight in Gainesville. Florida is 68-4 overall under Spurrier at home, 39-2 in SEC games and 22-0 against East Division teams.”

Tampa Bay On-Line:

“In what could be a prelude to Pasadena, the Rose Bowl mantra will be evoked often before today’s Florida-Tennessee showdown. From 13th Street to Kirk Herbstreit, it’s sure to echo throughout the area surrounding The Swamp.”
