This is a top game in the top conference this season. The SEC may be the best-assembled basketball conference ever this year. They will likely get 10+ bids to the dance. The Tigers put their #1 ranking on the line against #6 Tennessee. No team defends like Tennessee; defense travels, and they have the best in the land. The Vols have allowed opponents to shoot just 36% on the season and 26% from 3. All the other stats are comparable here. I can't resist taking a handful of points on a team that defends better than anyone. I like Tennessee in this one.
