Tennessee basketball: Vols loss at Auburn has same issues but is encouraging

Yes, they blew a 15-point lead by allowing an 18-0 run in the second half. Then they collapsed in the final minute of the game for the third straight time. Those two things were key as to why Tennessee basketball lost 73-66 at the Auburn Tigers Saturday.

However, while the Vols had the same issues that have been costing them all year, they also had some promising signs as well. With four games left, those promising signs could help them steal a couple of quality wins, which is all they need to reach the NCAA Tournament bubble with what their strength of schedule will look like in the end.
