Good morning.
The Vanderbilt basketball team plays at Tennessee tonight at 6:00 PM CT. Tonight’s game will be televised on ESPN.
Vanderbilt is on a 13-game losing streak, and strangely, one of the closest games they’ve had to a win over that stretch was an overtime loss to this same Tennessee team, then ranked #1 in the country. The Vols fell to fifth after a loss at Kentucky over the weekend, but this is still obviously a really good team: Vegas has Tennessee as an 18-point favorite tonight.
This game, for some reason, drew one of the two ESPN time slots tonight. Makes sense. It would be funny if we won this game, though.
Aaron Nesmith is the SEC Co-Freshman of the Week. Austin Martin is the SEC Player of the Week.
