Lost in all the bowl stuff today will be a basketball game this evening. Tennessee will be back in action at Thompson-Boling Arena, set to take on Alcorn State. The Volunteers came off of their Battle 4 Atlantis win to beat McNeese State earlier this week, 76-40.
The Volunteers have never faced the Braves before, who are currently 3-5 on the year. Alcorn has been up and down so far this year, getting a big win against Wichita State, but also getting hammered by Texas A&M Corpus Christi. They’ve lost buy games so far to Arizona State (by 22) and Ole Miss (by 15).
