Picture the scene: the score is 22-20 in favor of the visiting Volunteers. In a span of two minutes, the Jackets are called for four fouls in rapid succession and turn the ball over twice. It is now 29-20. In a game ultimately decided by seven points, this was definitively a turning point. The game, which eventually saw Grant Williams and Kyle Alexander of Tennessee foul out, was stitched together from disparate parts, broken up by a staggering 49 total fouls called.
The Jackets, who shot a respectable 38.9% from the field, could not keep pace with Tennessee for most of the night.
