GoVols247's Wes Rucker (from Fort Rucker Studio in Knoxville) and Grant Ramey (from GoVols247's Blount County satellite office in Maryville) break down another week that was and more weeks that will be for the 19th-ranked Tennessee basketball team. The Vols have had another interesting week, falling on the road at Georgia over the weekend but the bouncing back for a 62-57 win over Florida on Wednesday that gave Tennessee a two-game cushion for the No. 2 spot in the SEC standings. The Vols almost certainly won't catch league-leading Auburn with just three games left in the regular season, but Wednesday's win did give Tennessee some breathing room ahead of the incredible six-way tie for third place in the standings — and those spots are really important in a league that gives double-byes to the top four seeds in the conference tournament. As big as Wednesday was for the Vols, though, there are still plenty of reasons for concern heading into the last leg of the regular season. We discuss reasons for optimism, cause for pause and everything in between in this episode.
