Tennessee basketball: A week off is not ideal for the Vols with No.1 Gonzaga up next

The Tennessee basketball team has another top-ten matchup they are getting ready for. Late last month the Vols played No.2 Kansas in the Championship Game of the NIT Season Tip-Off. Now, they are gearing up for a matchup with the No.1 ranked Gonzaga Bulldogs.

When Tennessee takes the court on Sunday, it will be their first game in seven days. Usually with a veteran team, like the Vols, that could be considered a good thing. However, as someone who is going to predict the game, I’m not so sure the time off is going to help Tennessee.
