Opponent Swap: Basketball Vols to Host Georgia Wednesday

Opponent Swap: Basketball Vols to Host Georgia Wednesday

February 07, 2021 | Men's Basketball

SEC adjusts schedule due to COVID pauses throughout league

Rather than hosting Florida on Wednesday as originally scheduled, the Tennessee basketball team now will host Georgia. Tipoff remains set for 8 p.m. ET on ESPN2.

Ticket holders will receive instructions via email and should expect to use their original ticket for the Feb. 10 game.

The Southeastern Conference announced the scheduling adjustment Sunday due to a combination of positive COVID-19 tests, contact tracing and subsequent quarantining of individuals within the Texas A&M and Florida programs, which led to multiple game postponements.

A make-up date for the Tennessee-Florida game in Knoxville has not been determined at this time. However, the Vols now have multiple open dates during the remainder of the regular season (Feb. 23/24 and March 2/3).

The SEC's COVID-19 management requirements, as developed by the SEC's Return to Activity and Medical Guidance Task Force, are available on SECsports.com.
