The Good, Bad, And Ugly: Tennessee vs. Florida

Breaking down what went good, bad, and ugly for the Tennessee Volunteers in their matchup against the Florida Gators.
In this story:

The Volunteers are fresh off a win against the Florida Gators they picked up on Tuesday night. The final score was 85-66, as the Tennessee Volunteers won in dominant fashion. Here were the good, bad, and ugly points of the game.

The Good

Dalton Knecht, per usual, was good! Dalton is the first player of this century to have consecutive 35+ point games in the SEC. He finished the game with 39 points and eight rebounds, putting up his career high in the points category. Another good would be the performance from Jonas Aidoo. Aidoo has been on a rampage this season, as he has had multiple solid performances and had another one in the Florida matchup on Tuesday. He finished the game with 19 points in a dominating offensive performance.

The Bad

The bad would have to be the super senior Santiago Vescovi's performance. Vescovi has been uncharacteristic as of late and is playing very unlike himself. The Vols feed off of his performances a lot at times, so the hope is for him to get back on track.

The Ugly

The ugly would be the lack of usage of the younger guys. The Volunteers didn't use Dilione, Carr, or Phillips as much as they probably should, as this would've been a great time for them to get some SEC minutes under their belt. They did use Estrella throughout this game, which is a huge plus for the Volunteers. The Vols will now turn their focus to playing the Alabama Crimson Tide on Saturday in what is expected to be a great matchup.
