Less than twelve hours after Tennessee’s first Q1 win of the season, I can’t help but feel this is the most exciting team they’ve had in at least four years. In a 40-minute game, we saw everything to see — full duality. The first half consisted of fast-paced play where both teams were just getting buckets. 43 points in a half against a Power 6 program, on the road, is something we haven’t seen from Tennessee since 2018-2019. The second half saw more of what we saw the last few years, absolute clamps on defense — holding Wisconsin to sub 15 percent from three and less than 40 percent from the field.
