The latest news on Tigers-Vols

More reading on the UT-Memphis game from around the net.

At Sporting News, Spencer Hall discusses how Cal and Pearl are two very different coaches who’ve achieved similar results.

ESPN.com correctly notes: “…Never has the national spotlight in men's basketball shown on two teams from the state of Tennessee like it will this weekend in Elvis' hometown.

At NBCSports.com, Ray Glier says both Memphis and Tennessee are flawed and that other teams in the NCAA tournament field should worry about but not fear facing the Tigers or Vols in the tourney.

Grant Wahl of SportsIllustrated.com says this is by far the biggest game in all of college basketball this season.

In his Dear Gary Mailbag, CBS Sportsline’s Gary Parrish answers three questions about the Tigers and discusses some of the players’ legal woes. Warning: this one won’t make everyone happy.

This story’s a little older, but collegehoops.net named Chris Douglas-Roberts national player of the week for last week.
