Offensively, Tennessee struggled throughout the game, shooting only 21.4% from the field and a dismal 13.8% from three-point range. The team managed to record just six assists, highlighting their offensive woes. Chaz Lanier and Zakai Zeigler each scored 10 points, but both had disappointing performances, with Lanier experiencing his worst shooting night of the season.
The game began poorly for the Volunteers, who missed their first six shots and quickly found themselves trailing 12-0. Felix Okpara Jr. finally got Tennessee on the scoreboard with two free throws nearly seven minutes into the game. Despite some defensive efforts, the Vols could not find their rhythm, trailing 34-15 at halftime. The second half saw no improvement, as Florida extended their lead significantly.
This defeat was particularly notable as it marked the first time since 1968 that an AP No. 1 team lost by 25 or more points. The game took place at the Stephen C. O'Connell Center in Gainesville, showcasing a dominant performance by the No. 8 Florida Gators, who also improved to 14-1 overall and 1-1 in SEC play.
