Suffering through a five-game losing streak, the Tennessee Lady Vols don’t have their road getting any easier. Holly Warlick’s team now has to play host to the No. 1 ranked Notre Dame Fighting Irish, who come into the game with an 18-1 record.
Tennessee enters the game with a 12-6 record and a 1-5 record in the SEC. They most recently lost a close game to the Arkansas Razorbacks. So as they continue to struggle with morale, the No. 1 team in the nation is the last opponent they need to face.
Nonetheless, this is a historical rivalry in women’s basketball, and the Lady Vols have to play.
