Tennessee is getting into the full swing of conference play, starting the SEC slate off with a 2-0 record. The Volunteers took apart Mississippi State earlier this week, and now will hit the road once again to face South Carolina.

The Gamecocks have entered a new era after letting Frank Martin go over the offseason. Lamont Paris is now at the helm, coming over from Chattanooga. It’s been a tough start for Paris, who has been tasked with rebuilding the program. South Carolina sits 7-7 on the year, coming off of a tough loss to Vanderbilt this week.
