The top-ranked Tennessee Volunteers tussle with the No. 8 Florida Gators in SEC college basketball today. This game is available to watch on multiple streaming services for free.

While Florida is one of the country’s best offenses — No. 5 in Division I, scoring 88.3 points per game — Tennessee boasts one of the best defenses in the country, allowing just 55.9 points per game. That number is good for No. 2 across Division I.

The Vols have shown the ability to shut down high-level offenses, limiting Baylor to 62 points and holding Illinois to 64 points on 29% shooting. Tennessee has the lockdown perimeter defense to contain Florida's explosive backcourt, but the Gators don't have the defensive chops to limit the Vols inside.

Tennessee picked up four more first-place votes and remains at No. 1 for the fifth consecutive week in the AP Top 25 college basketball poll

Tennessee tightened its grip on No. 1 in the AP Top 25 on Monday following a pair of lopsided wins, including one over SEC rival Arkansas, that left the Volunteers as the only undefeated team in men's Division I college basketball.
