Tennessee crushed Ole Miss 90-64 in Knoxville on Saturday evening.

The No. 5 Vols overwhelmed Ole Miss in this top-25 matchup. The Rebels entered this game with an undefeated record and were ranked No. 22 nationally.

Ole Miss had played a weak schedule to this point in the season, and that showed up on Saturday vs. the Vols. Tennessee scored a whopping 50 points on the Rebels in the 2nd half alone.

Jonas Aidoo was the top scorer for Tennessee with 24 points in this game. Aidoo went 10-of-19 from the floor and also led the team with 10 rebounds.

Zakai Zeigler also had a big game for Tennessee. Zeigler poured in 17 points and went 4-for-11 from 3-point range — leading the Vols in that category. He also added 10 assists, 5 rebounds, 1 steal and 1 block.

Tennessee is now 11-3 on the season and has now won 7 consecutive games. The Vols are also off to a 1-0 start in SEC play.

Tennessee will face Mississippi State on Wednesday.
