After a painful loss in the SEC Championship Game to Bruce Pearl and the Auburn Tigers, the Tennessee basketball team turns their attention to the NCAA Tournament. They begin their journey to a Final Four on Friday afternoon against the Colgate Raiders from the Patriot League.
Depending on who you speak to, the Vols road to a Final Four might not be as hard as other No.2 seeds in the tournament. Look at Michigan State, for example, they won the Big Ten Conference Championship and still placed in Duke’s bracket.
They also received a favorable draw despite Cincinnati receiving virtually a home game in the Second Round if both teams survive game one.
