As they return to SEC play, Tennessee basketball hosts the Texas A&M Aggies Tuesday night. Here is our preview for the Volunteers.

After losing a heartbreaker to the No. 3 ranked Kansas Jayhawks on the road Saturday in the SEC/Big 12 challenge, Tennessee basketball returns to SEC play Tuesday evening. Still trying to get on the bubble of the NCAA Tournament, the Vols are about to begin a brutal stretch run.

UT hosts A&M with a 12-7 record overall and a 4-2 SEC record. Before Saturday’s loss, they had won two straight against the Ole Miss Rebels and Vanderbilt Commodores, holding both opponents to under 50 points.

The Aggies, meanwhile, come in with a 9-9 record having lost three of four games, including dropping their SEC/Big 12 Challenge matchup as well to the Oklahoma State Cowboys. Here is all the information you need for Tennessee basketball’s Tuesday challenge.

Texas A&M is in its first year under head coach Buzz Williams, who arrived after taking the Virginia Tech Hokies to three straight NCAA Tournaments and the Sweet 16 in 2019. Despite their .500 record, they are dangerous, as they only lost to the LSU Tigers by four, and they did win their last SEC game, which was on the road against the Missouri Tigers.

As a result, the Vols are going to have to be ready for this challenge. They can’t take Texas A&M lightly. The team is getting better, as part of their .500 record is due to a four-game losing streak during non-conference play.

A brutal stretch run is on the horizon for Tennessee basketball after Texas A&M. They will then visit the Mississippi State Bulldogs and Alabama Crimson Tide before hosting the Kentucky Wildcats. So things are about to really test them.

This is why the Vols have to take Tuesday’s matchup seriously. If they are going to have any shot at the NCAA Tournament, they have to run the table against lesser opponents at home. Losing could really set them back.
