GAME 18 SET-UP  #6/6 Tennessee (15-2, 5-0 SEC) plays its third consecutive road game and fourth in five contests, traveling to Notre Dame, Ind., to take on the #7/7 Fighting Irish (16-2/4-1 ACC) at Purcell Pavilion at the Joyce Center on Monday at 7 p.m.  This is the 25th meeting between these schools, with UT holding a 20-4 record in the series and an 8-1 mark at Notre Dame but the Irish winning the last four match-ups.  The game will be televised by ESPN2, with Beth Mowins and Stephanie White on hand to call the action.  The contest also can be seen online via WatchESPN. A “Watch Live” link can be found on the Lady Vol Hoops Central page on UTSports.com.  Mickey Dearstone’s Lady Vol Network call can be heard on the radio on network stations statewide in Tennessee and via audio stream worldwide on UTSports.com.  Dearstone’s broadcast also will be carried on Sirius 93 and XM 190 on satellite radio.  The Lady Vols enter the contest riding an 11-game winning streak after navigating Auburn’s press and traps and taking down the Tigers, 54-42, on the road Thursday night.  It marked the 13th time this season in 17 games the Big Orange women had held an opponent to 53 or fewer points.  Tennessee has not lost since dropping back-to-back road games at Chattanooga (67-63) on Nov. 26 and #6/9 Texas (72-59) on Nov. 30, without Isabelle Harrison.  The Lady Vols have won a league-best 12 consecutive contests over SEC opponents, beginning vs. Auburn (W, 93-63) in Knoxville on Feb. 20, 2014.  The 5-0 league start this season leaves the Big Orange women in a tie with South Carolina atop the SEC standings, entering the weekend’s games (USC plays Sunday) as the only remaining unbeaten teams in conference play.  Notre Dame is coming off an 89-79 ACC win over #13/13 North Carolina in Chapel Hill on Thursday night, with Brianna Turner and Lindsay Allen combining for 53 points to lead the attack.  With that win, the Irish have claimed victories in their last two contests and in seven of their last nine games.  Tennessee and Notre Dame have one common opponent this season, and the Irish tamed Chattanooga at home on Nov. 21, 88-53, while UT fell on the road to the Lady Mocs, 67-63, on Nov. 26.  Notre Dame began the season ranked #3/3 and climbed to #2/2 at 8-0 before falling at home to #3/3 UConn, 76-58, on Dec. 6. ND also lost to Miami (Fla.), 78-63, in Coral Gables on Jan. 8 as the nation’s #4/4 team.
