Kentucky Wildcats
If Kentucky wins this game, it’s in the driver’s seat for a 1-seed in the NCAA Tournament, having beaten Tennessee twice in the SEC.
Of course, the first win against UT came at home. Winning on the road will be a much different story, especially without fifth-year senior Reid Travis.

Travis gave the Wildcats a second big, strong young man to contest with Grant Williams, Admiral Schofield, and the rest of Tennessee’s muscle. Now, Kentucky will be thin and it will be on the road.
UK will have to unleash its speed to have a chance in this game. EJ Montgomery will step in for Travis, as he has been doing since Travis went down last week.
Montgomery was 3-for-3 from the field with four rebounds against Tennessee in the first matchup but that was a different story, off the bench and in just nine minutes.
Tennessee Volunteers
Williams and Schofield should have more room to operate this time around. Schofield went just 7-for-18 in the first matchup and Williams only got off four field goal attempts.

After finding a way to win at Ole Miss earlier this week, Tennessee still has a chance to win the SEC, if it wins this game and LSU slips up between now and the end of the season.
More importantly, a win in this game puts Tennessee back into the discussion to be a 1-seed. I doubt both Tennessee and Kentucky will get on that 1-line, which means a meeting in the conference tournament may determine who gets there, assuming it’s a split in the regular season.
