Missouri Tigers (8-17)
The Missouri Tigers have endured a challenging season with a disappointing 8-17 record, including a winless conference record of 0-12. Struggling to find their rhythm, Missouri has faltered against conference rivals and non-conference opponents alike. Despite the efforts of S. East II, who averages 16.0 points per game, the Tigers have failed to find consistency and are unlikely to pose a significant threat to Tennessee.

Prediction
Expect Tennessee to dominate from the opening tip-off against Missouri in what promises to be a lopsided affair. With Tennessee's superior talent, form, and motivation, coupled with Missouri's struggles throughout the season, the Volunteers are poised to secure a convincing victory.
Tennessee's offensive firepower, led by D. Knecht, will overwhelm Missouri's defense, while their tenacious defense will stifle any attempt by the Tigers to gain momentum. Furthermore, Tennessee's depth and cohesion make them a formidable force that Missouri is ill-equipped to handle.
Considering Missouri's dismal performance this season and Tennessee's determination to maintain their standing in the SEC, expect the Volunteers to not only win but also cover the -11.5 points spread comfortably. Missouri may put up some resistance, but it will be futile against Tennessee's relentless onslaught.
Pick: Tennessee Volunteers -11.5 (-115)
