Tennessee basketball: No.1 Vols look to keep the winning streak alive against the feisty Gamecocks

The Tennessee basketball team grabbed the No.1 ranking after beating Arkansas and Alabama for the second time in program history. After beating Vanderbilt and West Virginia, the Vols stay put at the top spot in the new AP Poll.

However, it wasn’t easy. Vanderbilt gave Tennessee one of the toughest scares to date. The Commodores found themselves up six points with less than two minutes to go. The players, fans, announcers, and anyone watching the game had a feeling the No.1 team was going down.

However, Grant Williams (more on him later) wouldn’t allow that to happen.
