“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
