Going into Tuesday night, Vols fans were definitely nervous about the trajectory of their basketball program. The Tennessee basketball team had lost three straight games, and things were looking bleak. The Vols hosted Louisville and absolutely ran them out of the gym 83-62.
The game was an all-around team effort. Everyone pitched in on both ends of the floor. The Vols were playing terrific defense, and that led to transition opportunities on offense. One of the most defining stats from Tuesday night was the depth of Tennessee's basketball team.
The Vols bench outscored Louisville's bench 34-3.
