Tennessee basketball: 3 bold predictions for Vols vs. LSU

It’s official; the gauntlet has begun.

The Tennessee basketball team heads to Baton Rouge for a showdown with the LSU Tigers. This isn’t your typical LSU team; they are legit. They have stars, rebounding, defense, and depth, and they play well in the Pete Maravich Assembly Center.

The Tigers have only lost two games at home this season to Arkansas by one point and Florida by five points on Tuesday night. As we mentioned above, this will be Tennessee’s second straight road game against a top-15 team who lost the game before.

In an almost identical situation, Tennessee rolled into Rupp Arena last Saturday night and left with an absolute butt-kicking.
