It’s almost time for Tennessee to start the 2023 NCAA Tournament in Orlando, Florida.
The four-seed Volunteers will take on the 13-seed Louisiana Ragin’ Cajuns late on Thursday night from the Amway Center.
Prior to the contest, Tennessee dropped a new hype video on social media. The video shows a few different players talking about their journey to The Big Dance with some highlights from the court mixed in along the way.
“Every game is a championship game,” Tennessee freshman Julian Phillips said about the tournament in the video. “Every time you step on the floor, it’s a statement. We have to prove something to everyone doubting us.”
The winner of Tennessee-Louisiana will take on the winner of (5) Duke and (12) Oral Roberts on Saturday in Orlando.
Until then, though, (4) Tennessee will play (13) Louisiana at 9:40 p.m. ET on Thursday night.
