Tennessee puts Vanderbilt away in the second half, wins 77-68

Back to back blowout wins — Tennessee was riding high coming into tonight’s matchup against Vanderbilt. The Volunteers crushed South Carolina and Mississippi State, locking in on both ends of the floor. Those efforts moved them up to No. 5 in the country in the latest AP poll.

However, they were in for a fight tonight against Vanderbilt.

Tennessee appeared to find themselves midway through the first half. The Vols pushed out to a nine point lead, and you got the sense that they were ready to clamp down and take control. That didn’t happen though, as Noah Shelby’s shooting brough the ‘Dores right back.
