Why Tennessee can cover
Tennessee is coming off arguably its most impressive win of the season, overcoming the absence of two starters in its blowout win over Florida on Saturday. Veteran point guard Zakai Zeigler was sidelined due to a knee injury, while versatile forward Igor Milicic Jr. had flu-like symptoms. They are both expected to return on Wednesday night.
The Vols held Florida to just 24.5% shooting from the floor, despite playing with just seven scholarship players. Grad transfer Chaz Lanier leads Tennessee with 17.9 points per game, knocking down 79 3-pointers. Zeigler averages 12.3 points and a team-high 7.4 assists, while Jordan Gainey adds 11.0 points.

Why Missouri can cover
Missouri has been one of the most surprising teams in the SEC this season, winning six of its past seven games to move into third place in the conference standings. The Tigers are coming off a pair of ranked wins over Ole Miss and Mississippi State, beating the Bulldogs by 27 points on the road on Saturday. They led by 14 points at halftime and used a 15-0 run early in the second half to put the game away.
Caleb Grill shot 6 of 11 from 3-point range, scoring a team-high 20 points in the most decisive road win over a ranked team in school history. Grill has scored at least 20 points on five occasions this season, including each of his last two outings. The Tigers have covered the spread in seven of their last eight games, and they have covered in four of their last five games against Tennessee. See which team to pick here.
