The Florida-Tennessee game is quickly approaching. Kickoff is 3:30 p.m. on Saturday at Neyland Stadium. Here are some of the storylines being discussed:
--The Miami Herald touched base with Mrs. Teri Batts. If you've never heard of her, you're like most of us. However, Gators RB Jeff Demps knows her well and she's a big reason Urban Meyer signed Demps. Click here to read the story.
--One player the Gators must stop this week is Tennessee RB Tauren Poole, who leads the SEC in rushing. Click here for an Orlando Sentinel notebook.
--When the Gators go on the road, they don't just head to the airport and hop on a plane. There is a lot of structure that goes into the trip. Click here to read a story on Jacksonville.com.
--Tennessee coach Derek Dooley spent a lot of time at Wednesday's practice focused on red-zone play and building depth on special teams. Click here to read a notebook from utsports.com.
