Lady Vols basketball faces another in-state foe to start the second week of the season.
Tennessee (2-0) hosts Middle Tennessee State (2-0) at Food City Center on Tuesday (6:30 p.m., SEC Network+). The Lady Vols are off to an undefeated start to Kim Caldwell’s first season at the helm, beating Samford and UT Martin last week.
Senior guard Jewel Spear leads the team in scoring (15.5 points) and minutes (23.5) after two games. Zee Spearman, Ruby Whitehorn, Talaysia Cooper and Samara Spencer are all averaging double figures.
Whitehorn, a junior guard, is coming off a double-double against UT Martin. The Clemson transfer logged 18 points, 14 rebounds, three steals and two assists.

Lady Vols vs Middle Tennessee predictions
Tennessee 88, Middle Tennessee 51: Middle Tennessee will be the toughest challenge so far for the Lady Vols, especially with 6-foot-7 center Anastasiia Boldyreva. But Grand Canyon just held the Blue Raiders to 57 points in MTSU’s win Friday, so Tennessee should be able to hand business and avenge last season’s loss.
Lady Vols vs Middle Tennessee injury updates
Tennessee will be without two guards to start the season. Senior guard Kaiya Wynn was announced out for the season because of a torn Achilles, and walk-on guard Edie Darby is out for “an extended period of time” because of a left foot injury.
