The SEC Tournament has been incredible since Wednesday and Sunday’s championship game is expected to be the same. Florida and Tennessee will be fighting for a conference title, potentially having massive NCAA Tournament seeding implications on the line too.

Florida took down Alabama to earn a spot in the championship game, while Tennessee pulled off an upset over Auburn. Both teams find themselves red hot at the right time with the calendar reading March.

But only one will be lifting a trophy from Bridgestone Arena. Looking at the opening line and predictions from elsewhere, many are expecting Florida to be that team.

This will essentially serve as a tiebreaker of the season series between these two. Florida won a Jan. 7 matchup in Gainesville after holding Tennessee to just 43 points. Rick Barnes’ team returned the favor a few weeks later on Rocky Top as the Vols won 64-44.

Florida has just four SEC Tournament championships to its name, last winning one in 2014. Tennessee has five and is now looking for their second in four years after cutting down the nets in 2022.
