Staff Prediction

This one of the best matchups so far early in the college basketball season. Tennessee is coming into this game red hot, ranked 7th in the country and are arguably one of the best teams in the SEC. The Vols have won 9 of their first 10 games including 7 in a row. Maryland is ranked 13th in the country and has won 8 of their first 9 games. This is a coin flip as far as who will win the game, but Maryland will definitely cover the +5.5.
