Tennessee is the top-ranked team in the nation and boasts the school's best start in more than 100 years. But the Volunteers lack accomplishments in the eyes of coach Rick Barnes as they open Southeastern Conference play against No. 23 Arkansas on Saturday afternoon at Knoxville, Tenn. "We're 0-0 like everybody else. Rankings mean nothing," Barnes said. "None of it other than maybe people look at it as a way to build their resume right now. But the fact is we're 0-0 with everybody in the league." Tennessee (13-0) owns the second-best start in school history and can match the top mark -- 14-0 in 1922-23 -- by defeating the Razorbacks (11-2).
