Tennessee is trending up in a big way, I think they're a lot better than #26 right now.  In hindsight they faced arguably the toughest non conference schedule of any team (Stanford, Ohio State, Indiana, UCLA, Virginia Tech and Gonzaga) and lost to all of them, but have gone 16-0 against the rest of their foes, and played Stanford/VaTech/Gonzaga extremely close.  As a team they've really stepped up their  effort and chemistry after losing Key and having Jackson get suspended.  Rickea has played lights out since the Stanford game too which has really elevated them.  Team effort isn't a question anymore which was a big problem in games early in the season.  For the UCONN game specifically, the biggest question mark is the health of Jordan Horston.  If she's not able to go or isn't 100% I don't think Tennessee has a good shot to beat UCONN since they just don't have enough offense to realistically compete, and UCONN is playing extremely well right now.
