Florida vs Tennessee 2015 Live Radio Broadcast, Live Stream Online, Preview

By

The SEC West may grab all the headlines, but the conference's East division is shaping up to be contentious as well, with the Florida Gators trying to remain undefeated hosting the Tennessee Volunteers.

The SEC East showdown is also a matchup between two College Football Playoff dark horses that have yet to play some of the more heavily favored SEC teams. In that respect, Florida and Tennessee represent pre-tests for one another.

CBS will air the game on television and online with CBS All Access. Kickoff is scheduled for 3:30 p.m. ET in Gainesville, Fla. You can listen to the game live via Tennessee and Florida's radio feeds.

On top of the standings and rankings significance this game has is a rivalry, at least in the view of some.

"When I started getting to high school, Florida kind of roughed up Tennessee," Florida wide receiver Ahmad Fulwood told the Gators' official website. "I never really thought of it as a rivalry."

Florida has won 10 straight matchups with Tennessee. Saturday will be Will Grier's third straight start at QB for the Gators and he will likely have a long leash due to Treon Harris' suspension for the game. The redshirt freshman has a 68.4 completion rate and four touchdowns with a solid QBR of 60.

"They do some good things schematically and then offensively, you know, I think [Will] Grier continues to settle in as their quarterback. He can make plays with his legs, he's got a live arm," Tennessee head football coach Butch Jones said in a press conference. "And they have good skill. They do some different things schematically that create situational advantages with leverage sets and personnel groupings that we have to do a great job. So they're a good football team. Obviously, we always look at special teams and they're very athletic and have very good team speed across the board in all three phases. So it's a challenge in and of itself, but I know we're looking forward to that challenge as well. It should be a fun game."
