KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- Grant Williams and Robert Hubbs III each scored 18 points on Wednesday as Tennessee surged in the closing minutes to defeat Mississippi 75-66.
After trailing for most of the second half, Tennessee tied the score at 64-all on a hustle play down the stretch Jordan Bowden missed a 3-pointer, but Hubbs chased after the rebound, kept it from going out of bounds and passed to Williams for a layup with 2:52 left.
Following an Ole Miss turnover, Hubbs' driving layup put the Volunteers (14-10, 6-5) ahead for good with 2:08 remaining.
