The Tennessee Vols, as expected, were rewarded in the polls on the heels of one of the most exciting finishes of the season. UT upended Alabama at the buzzer on Jahmai Mashack’s 35-foot three pointer to give the Vols a massive 79-76 win that could possibly land them their first-ever #1 NCAA tournament seed in program history. ESPN’s Joe Lunardi has UT as the fourth overall team in his latest projections.

That’s right where the voters have them in the AP and Coaches Polls as well. Tennessee came in at #4, up one spot, in both sets of rankings.
