No betting line has been posted for this game yet. Sportsbooks usually post college basketball lines the day before; a few small-conference games get one only on game day or not at all. Books also take a line down for a while when a key player's status is unclear. We check ESPN and The Odds API several times a day and add the line as soon as there is one.

Advantages Why Tennessee can win
- Season-long ratings: betting lines have rated Tennessee about 8.0 points stronger over recent games.
- Tennessee's offense (115.8 points per 100 possessions, 50th in Division I) meets a Wofford defense that ranks 315th.
- Net rating (points per 100 possessions): Tennessee 25th (+13.6), Wofford 183rd (-0.3) of 365.
- Home court: Tennessee play at home, worth about 3 points in college basketball, more than in the NBA.
- Team matchup: where Tennessee can take advantage. Their shooting efficiency (174th of 365) meets the Wofford shooting defense (294th), so look for them to get clean looks against a defense that gives them up. And their offensive rebounding (1st of 365) meets the Wofford defensive rebounding (101st): a chance to crash the glass for second chances.
- Star matchup: At forward, Nate Ament (Tennessee: 16.7 pts, 6.3 reb, 2.3 ast, Game Score 12.1) has the edge on Brian Sumpter (Wofford: 6.6 pts, 4.9 reb, 0.8 ast, Game Score 6.2).
- Simulation: Tennessee win 4,640 of 5,000 simulated games.
Disadvantages Why Tennessee may not
- Ball security (turnovers per 100 possessions): Wofford 12th (13.4), Tennessee 227th (17.3) of 365.
- Three-point shooting: Wofford 119th (35.0%), Tennessee 200th (33.4%) of 365.
- Shooting variance: one hot or cold night from three swings college games by 10 points or more.
- Who plays: college basketball has no league-wide injury report, so a late absence can arrive at tip-off.
- Team matchup: Wofford have no clear unit-against-unit edge, so their path runs through a hot shooting night or a cold one from the favorite.
- Star matchup: the key positions lean Tennessee on paper, but Kahmare Holmes (19.5 pts, 5.7 reb, 2.7 ast, Game Score 15.0) is the kind of player who can swing one game.
- Upset odds: Wofford win 360 of 5,000 simulations (7%). A 93% pick still loses about 1 time in 10.
