The state of Tennessee, most notably the city of Memphis, is totally up for grabs today.
The #2 ranked college basketball team in the country, Tennessee, led by former UWM coach Bruce Pearl plays the #1 ranked team, Memphis in Memphis tonight. Memphis is the only undefeated team in the nation. The Tigers have won 47 in a row.
Excitement, as you might imagine, is riding high.
Even Graceland and Priscilla Presley are getting involved in the party atmosphere.
As for the game, this’ll be the 38th time since 1949 when the two top teams face off. No. 1 has won 19 of the 37 meetings against No. 2, but has lost five of the last 6, including Wisconsin’s 49-48 loss to Ohio State last season.
Go Memphis! Win it for the King!
