Tennessee Volunteers
Kentucky may have twice as many losses but its win, at home, on Saturday over Tennessee was enough to not only knock the Volunteers off of the #1 spot in the AP Poll, but drop them all the way below the Wildcats.
Tennessee is playing from the #5 spot this week and it did beat Vanderbilt, though underwhelmingly, 58–46. UT made just six of its 21 three-point attempts.

The win did highlight one of Tennessee’s strengths, however, which is its ability to win a variety of games. The Vols can win a game up in the 90s or down in the 50s; they are remarkably versatile and that has a lot to do with their collective experience.
That experience will take them as far as they go in the NCAAs, where they should be a 1-seed, unless they lose to Kentucky again, and even, perhaps, if they do.
I’m just skeptical about Rick Barnes as a Head Coach. He took Texas to one Final Four in 2003 and the ‘Horns didn’t perform very well against the eventual National Champion, Syracuse. Still, in a year that feels wide open, Tennessee has as good a chance as anyone. Don’t let the ranking fool you; this is surely one of the three best teams in the country.
LSU Tigers
Take a look at Duke, North Carolina, Virginia, Gonzaga, Tennessee, and Kentucky. Those are the six best teams in the country, in my opinion. Now look at the list of the teams to have beaten them.
A lot of it is cannibalism. The list includes all six of those teams: Duke, North Carolina, Virginia, Gonzaga, Tennessee, and Kentucky. Outside of those six teams beating each other, the list includes Texas, Michigan, Kansas, Syracuse, Seton Hall, Alabama, and LSU.

Syracuse beat Duke on the road but the Blue Devils had major injuries. LSU beat a fully healthy Kentucky on the road in arguably the best win of the season in college basketball, outside of any of those six beating any of the others.
The Tigers are done with Kentucky and have only this one vs. Tennessee. They are a game behind UT and tied with Kentucky so if they win this game and then win out, they will finish no worse than for a share of the SEC Regular Season Championship.
