Tennessee has won two of its three road games this season and is in bounce-back mode after a loss to Kentucky, 63-56. The Vols lead the SEC in scoring defense (57.0 ppg), field-goal percentage (.504), and assist-to-turnover ratio (1.49). Tennessee is also tops in the nation in field-goal shooting defense (.335) and 3-point defense holding nine opponents to 50 points or less. Mississippi State has lost four of its five SEC games. The team shoots just 40.9% from the field, 28.8% from long range, and a woeful 61.1% from the charity stripe. Tennessee has won eight of the last nine meetings including a sweep last season by scores of 72-63 and 72-59. The wagering value is on the visitors to win the game. Play Tennessee on the moneyline.
