Despite shooting nearly 60 percent from the field and getting incredible offensive performances from Dalton Knecht and Josiah Jordan-James, Tennessee fell to North Carolina 100—92 in the Dean Dome in what was ultimately a “too little too late” performance from the Volunteers.
Tennessee has now dropped three straight games, and remains winless against ranked opponents on the road over the last five seasons — their last such win coming on February 6, 2018 against 24 Kentucky.
In addition to 37 from Knecht and 20 Jordan-James, Tennessee got 13 points from Jonas Aidoo on 5-7 shooting, including a nice mid range jump shot in the second half.
