The Tennessee Volunteers have reached the Super Regionals in the NCAA Tournament for the fourth straight season after sweeping through the Knoxville regional last weekend.
After Monday, all the matchups between the remaining 16 teams in the tournament are set for the Super Regionals.
Opponent
The Vols are facing the Evansville Purple Aces, who were the four seed in the Greenville regional. The Purple Aces ultimately came out of the Greenville region after beating host East Carolina on Monday in a winner-take-all game 6-5.
Evansville made the NCAA Tournament by way of winning the Missouri Valley Conference tournament. As such, they're coming to Knoxville with plenty of momentum.
Schedule
The Vols and Purple Aces will start off their series at Lindsey Nelson Stadium on Friday at 3:00 pm ET. Game two will be Saturday at 11:00 am ET. A game three, if necessary, would take place at 6:00 pm ET on Sunday evening.
How to watch
Tennessee fans will be able to avoid the annoyance of having to go through the ESPN app to watch the games this weekend, which is a common way to have to watch games until the Super Regionals begin. Now, the games will be broadcast on ESPN, ESPN2, and ESPNU moving forward.
For those with cable or streaming apps like Hulu, etc., Friday's game will be broadcast on ESPN2, as will Saturday's game. Sunday's game, if necessary, will be shown on ESPNU.
