The Vols are in Nashville tonight to take on Western Kentucky for the second game of a double-header in the Sun Belt Classic. If you, like me, are late in joining basketball season, be sure to check out Corn from a Jar's Jumping Through Hoops post and The BruceBall Blog's Western Kentucky preview.

I have to be up early in the morning, so I may or may not watch in real time tonight, but make yourselves at home below. Go Vols!

Turnovers galore!

Both Tennessee forcing those of WKU and Tennessee committing unforced errors of their own.

Go Vols!

Lofton's having a rough night

Lofton can't hit anything.

And yet the team is up 34-28.

Go Vols!

New Faces Stepping Up

Good to see Brian Williams step up and be a real force in a game. We'll definitely need him to play like a man with Duke out.
Also happy to see JP finally on the court and will be looking for him to step up his scoring as he continues to get some play time. Important note on him was 7 rebounds, second only to Brian Williams. We need those wherever we can get them.
Third note, where was "Killa Cam" Tatum in this game I don't think he played at all?
