Tennessee 76, Vanderbilt 73 (OT): Josh Richardson scored five of his 27 points in overtime, and the visiting Volunteers got a game-tying, buzzer-beating layup from Robert Hubbs III at the end of regulation to help knock off the Commodores.

Armani Moore added 13 points and Derek Reese had 12 for Tennessee (14-9, 6-5 SEC), which had lost four of its previous five games. The Volunteers, who also received 10 points from Kevin Punter and nine points and seven rebounds from Hubbs, hit 8-of-21 from 3-point range and took advantage of Vanderbilt’s 17-of-30 struggles from the free-throw line.

Damian Jones had 16 points and nine rebounds, and James Siakam added 14 for Vanderbilt (13-11, 3-8), which had won two straight. Jeff Roberson chipped in 12 points for the Commodores, who shot 49 percent from the field and owned a 35-29 rebounding advantage, but saw second-leading scorer Riley LaChance finish with six points on 1-of-8 shooting.

Richardson hit a 3-pointer as the shot clock was expiring to give Tennessee a 70-67 advantage a minute into overtime before Jones and Siakam answered with back-to-back buckets in close to put the hosts up 73-72. But Vanderbilt then had a turnover and a missed LaChance 3-pointer sandwiched around a pair of Punter free throws, and Richardson’s offensive rebound and free throws with 8.6 seconds remaining preceded another LaChance long-range miss in the waning seconds.

Tennessee, which led 35-32 at the half, still held a 51-47 advantage with 9:58 to play in regulation when a Matthew Fisher-Davis 3-pointer ignited an 8-0 Vanderbilt run to put the hosts on top 55-51 with 6:26 to play. The Commodores held a 61-56 lead with 2:40 to go but only hit four of eight free throws down the stretch, setting up Hubbs’ game-tying, length-of-the-floor drive just before the horn.

GAME NOTEBOOK: Tennessee has won seven of the last nine in the series. … During the last 10 seasons, Tennessee is 43-13 against in-state competition. … Vanderbilt will get a chance for revenge when the two teams meet again Feb. 26 in Knoxville.
