Tennessee is looking for its seventh consecutive win in SEC play this evening, set to host Vanderbilt for round two between the in-state rivals. The No. 19 Volunteers are coming off of a big road win at Mississippi State on Wednesday night, improving to 17-6 overall and 8-3 in conference play.
Tennessee has won nine straight games now over Vanderbilt, including four straight in Knoxville. The Vols took care of the Commodores in Nashville last month, winning 68-60.
Vanderbilt has taken a decent step forward this season under Jerry Stackhouse, currently 13-10 overall on the year and 5-6 in SEC play.
