TENNESSEE
WATCH: Admiral Schofield posterizes Mississippi State defender on vicious dunk
The No. 3 Tennessee Volunteers are facing off against No. 6 Mississippi State Friday night in the SEC Tournament quarterfinal, and things have been close throughout much of the game.
The Vols had a quiet 34-28 lead at halftime, and MSU was playing rather well.
However, UT has started to pull away in the second half, and during the stretch run, Admiral Schofield just viciously posterized a Mississippi State defender. Schofield’s dunk gave Tennessee a 57-46 lead.

Schofield has a team-high 15 points with 9:00 minutes remaining in the second half.
Epic.
Admiral. Schofield. BOOM.
Just ridiculous!! One of the best dunks of the year for sure. Heard Schofield talk after the game and that kid is a total class act…I am a fan!
Woodard’s hustle to try and draw an offensive foul was rewarded by getting murdered. Still don’t know where the foul came from but whatever.
His heels were still on the restricted area arc. It was a really close call, that honestly wouldn’t have surprised me to go either way, but it was the right call.
I’m so glad he graduates. He’s caused us more problems over the last two years than anyone else in the SEC.
Charge. Woodard had position. As usual sec refs call games more about who has more fans in attendance and narrative.
It was the right call. Defenders heels were still on the restricted area arc. It was darn close, but it wasn’t a charge. As I said above, live, it wouldn’t have surprised me if it went the other way.
