Azuolas Tubelis had 11 points and four rebounds while ninth-ranked Arizona fell into a 35-35 halftime tie with sixth-ranked Tennessee in a predictably tense game at McKale Center on Saturday night.
Arizona had a 35-33 and possession of the ball with 36 seconds left but Courtney Ramey was called for an offensive foul, and Tennessee's Jahmai Mashack made a layup with two seconds left to tie the game up.
Tennessee shot 44.1% overall and hit 5 of 13 3-point shots. Reserve point guard Zakai Zeigler led the Volunteers with nine points on 4 of 5 shooting while collecting three rebounds. With a rowdy, big-game vibe in the stands to begin the game, McKale Center became quieter midway through the first half while Tennessee took a 27-20 lead with eight minutes left in the first half. Volunteers entered the game shooting just 32.4% from 3 but made 5 of 9 to that point and were shooting 57.9% overall.
After shooting 1-4 with five turnovers until the first media timeout last season at Tennessee, when the Wildcats trailed 16-2 early in their 77-73 loss, Arizona went 5-11 from the field with two turnovers through the first five minutes Saturday and held a 13-10 lead.
