The Florida-Tennessee rivalry game has been a little lopsided in recent years with the Gators taking home a win the last 11 seasons straight. The Vols are stacked on defense this year though and have been picked to win the SEC East by many analysts.

The Vols haven't made them look too smart with a struggle win over Appalachian State in Week 1 that required an overtime, but did redeem themselves with a resounding 45-24 win over Virginia Tech in Bristol. Tennessee will get its first real test in two weeks when they host the Florida Gators.

Florida didn't exactly impress in its first week game against UMass either winning 24-7, but absolutely beat down Kentucky 45-7 in a dominant performance on both sides of the ball. The two teams should play a high caliber game though with tune up games this week for each of them.
And now we have the time and network for the game and it shouldn't come as a surprise that it's going to be the 3:30 game on CBS.

Hopefully this game will be as thrilling as the the 28-27 game in The Swamp from last year. Tennessee is undoubtedly hoping for a different result, but it should be an excellent contest to watch either way.
