Florida basketball forward Thomas Haugh discusses getting a second chance to win an SEC Tournament title after UF beat Alabama 104-82.

NASHVILLE, Tenn ― Florida basketball is one win away from its first SEC Tournament championship since 2014.

The second-seed Florida Gators (29-4) will look to leave no doubt about securing an NCAA Tournament No. 1 seed and bring home a trophy when they face No. 4 seed Tennessee (27-6) on Sunday afternoon at Bridgestone Arena.

Florida reached the SEC Tournament finals last season, but playing its fourth game in four days, lost 86-67 to Auburn in the title game.

This time around, Florida comes into the SEC Tournament a deeper and more rested team, playing its third game in three days after securing a double bye during the regular season.

“Our team, collectively, I think is more ready for this type of situation and more ready to play in a championship game,” Florida basketball coach Todd Golden said.

Tennessee is led by senior guard Chaz Lanier, who is averaging 17.9 points and 3.3 3-pointers per game.
