GAINESVILLE, Fla. Seth Griffith Jersey . -- Having dropped three consecutive games to Southeastern Conference rival Tennessee, No. 6 Florida had been waiting for a chance to end the losing streak. The Gators welcomed it and wanted it -- and it showed. Michael Frazier II scored 17 points, Scottie Wilbekin added 13 and Florida handled Tennessee 67-41 on Saturday for the teams 11th consecutive win. The Gators (17-2, 6-0 SEC) beat the Volunteers for the first time in nearly two years and extended their school record for consecutive home wins to 26. "We had a little chip on our shoulder because they kicked our butts the last three times," said Florida centre Patric Young, who added 10 points. "I can actually remember each loss, and the last one was the worst because they were on the court celebrating. They punched us, and we didnt respond well the last three years. "Tonight, we were so ready for whatever they had to throw at us. We were all locked in." Especially on the defensive end. Florida held the Volunteers (12-7, 3-3) to a season-low in points and shooting percentage (27). The Volunteers backcourt really struggled, with leading scorer Jordan McRae, Antonio Barton and Josh Richardson combining to make 2 of 29 shots. "They turned us over, they sped us up, they did a great job," Tennessee coach Cuonzo Martin said. "We forced some shots, but you give that defence credit for doing that." Jarnell Stokes led Tennessee with 16 points and 10 rebounds -- his 10th double-double of the season. Stokes kept the Vols in the game early, but faded down the stretch. Jeronne Maymon chipped in eight points and seven boards. "This is just my observation, but I thought those guys, Stokes and Maymon, were so incredible on the backboard with their effort," Gators coach Billy Donovan said. "To offensive rebound and to chase balls like they did, they got worn down, they got tired and rightfully so. Those guys are carrying around a lot of weight and size and strength." The Gators led 26-19 at halftime and pulled away with a 21-5 run after the break. Wilbekins floater in the lane got things started, and Fraziers consecutive 3-pointers really opened it up. After Will Yeguetes dunk and Dorian Finney-Smiths consecutive layups in transition, the Gators pulled ahead by 17 and looked really in rhythm. The only thing left at that point was to start making some highlight plays, and boy, they did. Kasey Hill hit a pull-up jumper. Young followed with a nifty, reverse post move and later got the sellout crowd rocking with a one-handed dunk on an alley-oop feed from Frazier. It was just what Florida had hoped for after the last three meetings. "Its a gift to be desperate," Donovan said. "I thought we played closer to our identity and our potential than we have before. I think the last two games we didnt do that. Its encouraging to me to see our guys come out with that kind of focus." Florida coasted from there, winning for the 16th time in its last 17 games. The only loss in that stretch was a buzzer-beating defeat at then-No. 12 Connecticut in early December. Florida shot 48 per cent from the field, including 5 of 16 from behind the arc. The Gators scored 38 points in the paint, made 10 of 13 free throws and finished with a season-low six turnovers. Stokes posed problems for Florida early. But Donovans full-court press gave McRae, Barton and Richardson fits. The Vols had just 13 turnovers, but they ended up taking countless ill-advised shots and had little, if anything, come easy. "It was our defence," Frazier said. "They couldnt score, which was the game plan for us, to lock down and guard on defence." The defensive gem helped Florida sweep its fifth straight Thursday-Saturday setup in conference play. This one came after the team was stuck in Tuscaloosa overnight Thursday because of mechanical plane issues. The Gators returned home around noon Friday and had to alter their practice schedule, but they showed no problems against Tennessee. Florida, which has lost in three straight regional finals in the NCAA tournament, is trying to build a resume that will get it a No. 1 seed and plenty of momentum for a season that started with high expectations. This was another solid win in the right direction. "I feel like for us seniors, its just a little bit more important for us knowing its our last go-around," Wilbekin said. "We have a different level of focus." Derek Roy Jersey . Solomon Elimimian did not make the trip with the team after suffering what appeared to be a right leg injury in the teams regular season finale against the Calgary Stampeders. Evander Kane Jersey . The Brazilian-born strikers brace drew him level with Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo as the leagues leading scorers with 17 goals apiece through 16 rounds. "The important thing is to help the team win, not the goals," Diego Costa said. After a first half dominated by defence, Atletico pressed Valencia into its area and Diego Costa did the rest. http://www.officialsabreshockeyauthentic.com/thomas-vanek-jersey/ . The Raptors second-year forward has been one of the primary beneficiaries of the early-season trade, breaking out and becoming a vital part of his teams success on both ends of the floor. Around the league, teams are starting to take notice and feature Ross more predominately in their pre-game scouting reports but its not just the opposition that hes impressing.The Buffalo Sabres liked Matt Moulson so much, after he played 44 games for them last season, that they brought him back as a prize free agent this summer. Numbers Game looks at the Sabres bringing in a veteran winger to help their rebuilding plan. The Sabres Get: LW Matt Moulson. Moulson is a 30-year-old winger who was a three-time 30-goal scorer while skating on John Tavares wing, yet there are signs of decline creeping in. While he scored 23 goals and 51 points in 75 games last season, Moulsons shots on goal per game was down to 2.35, after a career-best 3.28 shots on goal per game in 2012-2013. He had three points in 10 playoff games before oblique and groin injuries knocked him out of the lineup. Over the course of his career, Moulson has been a mediocre possession player, which has generally meant good relative numbers while playing for bad teams, Going back to Buffalo, where he had 11 goals and 29 points in 44 games last season, Moulson should be looking at prime ice time, playing first line and power play, because hes one of the few on the roster that has been a consistent goal-scorer in the NHL. Given the supporting cast, it will be tough for Moulson to get bback to the 30-goal level that was becoming customary with the Islanders, but the Sabres scored a league-low 1. Justin Bailey Jersey. 83 goals per game last season, so any offensive contribution will be welcomed. Theres also a decent chance that, by the end of this five-year, $25-million deal, the Sabres wont be thrilled about the production they are getting from Moulson, as his goal-scoring production is likely to decline as he heads towards his mid-thirties, but whats the real downside? The Sabres are probably a bad team for at least a couple more years and if the supporting cast gets better, as it should, then maybe Moulson can still produce secondary offence as the Sabres eventually become more competitive. In the short-term, the next couple of seasons, if Moulson could hit for 25 goals and 50 points per season, then that would have to be considered very successful. The Wild made up for the loss of Moulson by signing free agent Thomas Vanek who, coincidentally enough, was traded for Moulson last season.
