Tennessee 80 Kansas 61 Yep
Well, that was satisfying. Whatever your experience of the last week or six weeks of uncertainty with Tennessee football, and the smidge of uncertainty that crept into this basketball team in losses to Florida and Missouri…this, tonight, was (Fulmerized) certain. Josiah-Jordan James hit a three at the 12:53 mark of […]
