Tennessee basketball: Vols had the right spell to prevent Vanderbilt’s Memorial magic

History has a way of repeating itself. Honestly, it’s quite scary once you think about it. 11 years ago a newly ranked No.1 Tennessee basketball team was riding high with their win over a highly talented Memphis Tigers team.

The very next game after receiving the No.1 ranking the Vols traveled to Nashville to take on the Commodores. As we all know, Shan Foster dropped over 30 points and willed Vanderbilt to an upset victory.

Fast forward to this season and the same scenario was at play, well kind of. The newly ranked No.1 Volunteers went into Nashville on Wednesday night to take on the Commodores.
