The Volunteers plunge into postseason play in Nashville Thursday with a first-round SEC tournament game against LSU (3:15 p.m., WVLT).

Coach Bruce Pearl’s teams haven’t generally been very successful in the SEC tourney and they’re already certain to get an NCAA tourney bid, so they could be lacking in intensity this week. But at the same time, they couldn’t possibly lose to lowly LSU (11-19, 2-14), could they?

Tell us how far you think they’ll make it.
