Chandler Parsons almost did it again.
Down two with 31 seconds to go, Parsons stroked a straight-away three to put the Gators up one.
On the ensuing possession, Scotty Hopson dialed up a little magic of his own, knocking down a step-back two from the wing to put Tennessee ahead 61-60.
With no timeouts left, the Gators quickly moved up the floor and got a great look off a pick-and-roll by Alex Tyus. The shot went begging and Hopson snagged the rebound to run out the clock.
The Gators shot 47% from the field but only attempted 48 shots. Tyus led all scorers with 18, while Parsons had 14. Tyus and Parsons shot a combined 12-for-17 while the rest of the Gators were 11-for-31.
After a slow start, Wayne Chism scored 16 points for the Vols while Hopson and J.P. Prince added 10 and 12, respectively.
The loss snapped the Gators (15-6, 4-3) four-game win streak and kept Tennessee (16-4, 4-2) from dropping a third straight game.
