There’s no rest in the SEC, not this year. Tennessee’s tough stretch continues on Tuesday night as they welcome No. 12 Kentucky to Knoxville for the first of two matchups on the year.
The Volunteers are coming off of a grueling, physical game at No. 1 Auburn where they came up a bucket short. Tonight they’ll look to bounce back against a rival, while welcoming back Mark Pope to the series. Pope was a part of Kentucky’s National Championship team back in 1995-96. He’s now in the middle of year one as the program’s head coach.
Things have changed since then.
