Tennessee basketball benefits from favorable NCAA Tournament draw

sportingnews.com

Tennessee basketball aimed for a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament but lost to Florida in the SEC Tournament final. Florida's victory secured the last top seed, changing Tennessee's path in the tournament. Despite the loss, Tennessee received a favorable draw. They will face Wofford in the first round, followed by potential matchups against inconsistent teams like Utah State or UCLA in the second round. If they advance, Tennessee may encounter a weakened Kentucky team in the Sweet Sixteen. Their experience in the SEC has prepared them for these challenges as they prepare for the tournament.
