Tennessee basketball preview vs. Louisiana: Vols look to start 2-0

Don’t let the Louisiana name fool you. This Ragin’ Cajuan team that won 27 games a season ago and were Sun Belt Regular Season Champions. In fact, Louisiana has had back-to-back 20 win seasons and are primed to do so again this year.

Tennessee basketball (1-0) is coming off a huge season-opening win against Lenior-Rhyne. Yes, it was only Lenior-Rhyne but the Vols won convincingly, and they didn’t play near their potential. They will have to put it in gear against Louisiana, though. Tennessee should easily win, but if they let the Ragin’ Cajuns hand around it could come down to the wire.
