West Virginia Mountaineers vs. Tennessee Volunteers Recap: Vols Overcome Slow Start In 83-66 Win

Despite a slow start on offense, the SEC/Big-12 Challenge proved to be the exact opposite of a challenge for the Tennessee Volunteers.

Even though the West Virginia Mountaineers led by as much as 12 in the first half, the Vols never batted an eye as they used dominate defense en route to a 83-66 victory.

It was the first time the Vols have won 14 straight games since 1922 and it’s now been 65 days since they lost to the Kansas Jayhawks.

Jordan Bone started off the scoring, nailing a mid-range jumper to give the Vols the 2-0 lead.
