After finishing third at the Emerald Coast Classic to remain in the top 25 this week, Tennessee basketball returned home for a dominant win Wednesday night. The Vols beat the winless Florida A&M Rattlers 72-43.
Ranked No. 21 in the AP Poll and No. 20 in the Coaches Poll, UT did trail 3-2 nearly two minutes in. But then they reeled off a 14-0 run to dominate the rest of the way, taking a 39-18 lead into halftime. Rick Barnes was able to go 11-deep in the game because of how much Rocky Top dominated the game.
