The Tennessee Volunteers bounced back from their early-week loss to the Florida Gators on Saturday, outlasting the Texas Longhorns in Austin 74-70. The Vols got significant contributions across the roster against Texas, and they needed every bit of it in order to escape with a big road win.

Zakai Zeigler was his usual awesome self, particularly down the stretch as Tennessee surged ahead. The Vols’ star guard totaled 16 points with 8 assists to drive the offense.

However, it was who showed up who really was the story on Saturday - Darlinstone Dubar.
