The Volunteers seek their first SEC Tournament title in 40 years, and they should be in good shape to advance to the title game. They came up just short of a regular-season title despite being the best team in the SEC for most of the season. Tennessee has shown poise and resilience all season, and has the slightly stronger current form. The Wildcats have the much more decorated postseason ledger, but look for Tennessee to get the best of the third meeting.

The Cats have revenge, the have momentum, the have the better defensive team and even though the game is in Nashville they will probably have more of the crowd.
