Tennessee is back in action today, set for a big test. The Volunteers are in Brooklyn, ready to take on No. 13 Maryland in a big time non-conference matchup. The Terrapins are 8-1 overall, coming off of their first loss of the year to Wisconsin earlier this week.
Rick Barnes and his Volunteers are riding high, coming off of a Battle 4 Atlantis victory a couple of weeks ago. Tennessee has breezed through three tune-up games since then.
They’ve been nursing a couple of injuries during that time, too. Tennessee is dealing with Josiah-Jordan James’ sore knee, and a shoulder sprain for Santiago Vescovi.
