What to Know

The Eastern Kentucky Colonels' road trip will continue as they head to Thompson-Boling Arena at 7 p.m. ET Wednesday to face off against the #7 Tennessee Volunteers. The Volunteers will be strutting in after a victory while Eastern Kentucky will be stumbling in from a defeat.

The Colonels ended up a good deal behind the James Madison Dukes when they played last Friday, losing 97-80.

Meanwhile, everything came up roses for Tennessee at home against the Alcorn State Braves on Sunday as the team secured a 94-40 win. Six players on Tennessee scored in the double digits: forward Olivier Nkamhoua (20), forward Julian Phillips (18), guard Jahmai Mashack (13), forward Uros Plavsic (12), guard Tyreke Key (11), and guard Zakai Zeigler (10). Mashack hadn't helped his team much against the McNeese State Cowboys last week, so this was a nice turnaround for him. Jahmai Mashack's points were the most he has had all season.

Eastern Kentucky have to know they'll be fighting an uphill battle given the 26.5-point spread they are up against. Those burned by picking them against the spread last week might want to keep in mind that the squad has not yet dropped back-to-back games against the spread this season.

Eastern Kentucky is now 4-4 while the Volunteers sit at 7-1. A couple stats to keep an eye on: The Colonels rank 18th in college basketball when it comes to points per game, with 83.5 on average. But Tennessee comes into the matchup boasting the third fewest points allowed per game in college basketball at 51.5. These opposing strengths should make for an exciting matchup.
