Tennessee of course went on to win the SEC regular season title, and they claimed a number two seed for the big dance. So if UTC can beat a two seed, they have to like their chances against a six seed in Nebraska on Saturday.

Said guard Kayla Christopher, "We really didn't know what to expect from ourselves to open the season. Just to good a really big win like that right off the bat. Just gave us a lot of confidence." Added forward Taylor Hall,"It definitely gave us momentum throughout the year. Just some confidence. We know that we can go in and play with anybody as long as we execute and perform."
