Tennessee basketball head coach Rick Barnes and his team suffered a brutal 24-point road loss at the hands of the former National Champion Florida Gators. Despite the title, the Gators have also struggled to find consistency with five losses, thus raising the question: just how much of the story will this game tell for the Vols?

Through three conference games now, the Vols have collected just one win at home, against Texas. With losses to both Arkansas and Florida, the Vols turn the page towards Tuesday when they take on Texas A&M at home.

Does this loss officially raise some red flags surrounding the legitimacy of contention for this season's team? Only time will tell.
