Tennessee basketball opens a three-game run of home games before starting SEC play.

The No. 1 Vols (10-0) host Western Carolina (3-6) on Tuesday (7 p.m. ET, SEC Network+).

Tennessee beat Miami 75-62 in New York on Dec. 10 and won 66-64 at Illinois on a Jordan Gainey buzzer-beating layup on Saturday.

The Vols are ranked No. 1 in the nation for the second straight week. It is the second time UT has been ranked No. 1 in consecutive weeks in program history. Both times were under coach Rick Barnes.

Tennessee’s 10-0 start is its best since an 11-0 run to open the 1999-2000 season. The 1922-23 Vols have the best start in program history. That team opened the season 14-0 in its 17-game season.
