Both of Tennessee basketball’s SEC opponents that they’ll meet twice this year in addition to their three permanent opponents made the NCAA Tournament in 2018. The Vols will face the Missouri Tigers and the Florida Gators at home and on the road.
That’s in addition to their match-ups at home and on the road against the Kentucky Wildcats, Vanderbilt Commodores and South Carolina Gamecocks. So of their 10 conference games against opponents they face twice, six will be against NCAA teams last year.
This is all part of the men’s basketball SEC match-ups that the conference released on Wednesday.
