Mississippi at Tennessee

One has to give a lot of credit to the Tennessee Volunteers. After dealing with team issues and suspensions, they went out and not only took on the No. 1 team in Kansas, but beat them rather soundly. They had the perfect opportunity for a letdown vs. Auburn in their next game, and won by 26 points, so this is a team stepping-up every time on the court. They face another big challenge at home vs. Ole Miss and a starting five that all averages in double-digits. The difference here is that Tennessee is playing good right now, and have been deadly on this court at 9-0. The Rebels have had two big tests, one vs. Villanova and another vs. West Virginia, and came up empty losing by 10 and 8 points. I look for a similar verdict in this one. I'm going with Tennessee here.
