The seventh-ranked Tennessee Volunteers head to Gainesville, to end out the dual-meet portion of their schedule on Saturday at No. 5 Florida.
The Vols (6-1, 2-0 SEC) are carrying some momentum after winning their first three January dual meets. Tennessee topped three top-15 teams in Virginia, Georgia and Indiana in the weeks leading up to Saturday's showdown in Gainesville.
Florida (4-3, 2-1 SEC) are coming off a loss to defending SEC champion Auburn. The Gators opened a season with a loss to Virginia and boast conference wins over LSU and Georgia. Florida owns a 1-1 dual-meet record in January.
The Gators have won the last two and seven of the last eight in the series. The Vols haven't won in Gainesville since a 110-74 win in 2001. Tennessee looks to start a new streak with a win heading into the league championship meet, also held at Florida's O'Connell Center Natatorium.
