Kentucky basketball head coach Billy Gillispie reacts to a call during the second half of his teams 58-54 win over Mississippi at Rupp Arena in Lexington, Ky., on Wednesday, Feb. 27, 2008.

Every Tennessee-Kentucky basketball game is big, but the Wildcats, given up as contenders early in the season, are back and they can prove it Sunday -- or so say their fans.

The Wildcat logic goes like this: The Wildcats are just one game out of first in the SEC East after a tumultuous start; they have already beaten the Vols once; and Thompson-Boling historically has been a friendly litter box (in some years sporting more blue than orange).

Will the Vols end up Sunday losing two No. 1's in a week?

Read the blogger buzz on Sunday's pivotal game (yeah, they're all pivotal now).
