Tennessee is coming off a hard-fought loss on the road to Alabama. UT had a chance to tie the game at the buzzer, but Trae Golden’s three-pointer was off the mark, and the Vols fell, 68-65, and remained winless in SEC play. Tennessee outrebounded Alabama, 40-25, which included 16 offensive rebounds, and Kentucky has struggled mightily on the boards this year.
