Tennessee head coach Cuonzo Martin, center, watches from the bench along with Kenny Hall (20), Josh Richardson (1) and Trae Golden (11) in the first half of an NCAA college basketball game against Vanderbilt on Tuesday, Jan. 24, 2012, in Nashville. The Vols lost the road game, 65-47.
There's no place like home. But even Dorothy proved her worth on the road - a yellow brick one at that.
Cuonzo Martin's Vols have been awfully impressive at home recently, yet on the road they've been awfully .... awful.
What's going on? Do they become the Scarecrow during road games, absentmindedly forgetting the game plan? Or are they like the Cowardly Lion, intimidated in a hostile environment? Perhaps they turn into the Tin Man and can't find the heart to compete when they need to?
Whatever the case, the Vols will face a daunting challenge when they roll into Lexington to play No. 1-ranked Kentucky on Tuesday (7 p.m., ESPNU). Sticking to the "Wizard of Oz" theme, what do you think the Vols most need to give the Wildcats a shock? Pick one of these, or post your own.
