## Resource

Tennessee basketball is the No. 6 seed in the Midwest Region and will take on the winner of Wednesday’s No. 11 seed play-in game between Miami (Ohio) and SMU on Friday in Philadelphia at 4:25 p.m. ET. Does Tennessee have a manageable path to the second weekend? Which teams stand in the way of a third-straight Elite Eight appearance? What’s the status of star freshman Nate Ament? Tennessee football began spring practice this week as we get the first look at the quarterback competition between George MacIntyre and Faizon Brandon. What other takeaways are there from day one of spring drills? What’s coming up this week for Tennessee football? Volunteer baseball fell hard on Sunday to Georgia in the series rubber match. Despite the series loss, do you feel better about where this team stands after the showing? Join the Volquest crew of Brent Hubbs, Grant Ramey and Eric Cain as they discuss these topics and plenty ore on the Tuesday Podcast.
