The No. 1 overall seed Tennessee Volunteers made quick work of the Knoxville Regional last weekend. Now, according to the oddsmakers, they have the easiest path forward to Omaha. That would be thanks to a shocking upset pulled off by Evansville, which was able to overcome East Carolina, VCU and Wake Forest to advance to the supers.
Evansville became just the ninth No. 4 seed to advance out of a regional and make it to the supers. They run into the buzzsaw that is Knoxville, where they’ll face the No. 1 team in the country.
