The Tennessee Volunteers looked to get back on track against rival Kentucky on Tuesday night at the Food City Center at Thompson-Boling Arena following a 53-51 loss to Auburn on Saturday.

With an offense that was, well, downright offensive, and a defense that was uncharacteristically absent, Tennessee fell to Kentucky 78-73.

Igor Milicic, Jr. led the Vols with 19 points and 9 rebounds. Chaz Lanier and Zakai Zeigler added 15 and 13 points, respectively.

Kentucky took the lead out of the gate at 12-4 with four three pointers in the first four-plus minutes. Get used to that Kentucky made three pointers thing.
