COLUMBIA, S.C. — Olivier Nkamhoua scored a season-high 21 points on 10-of-10 shooting as No. 8 Tennessee used a quick start to blow out South Carolina 85-42. Nkamhoua hit all five of his attempts in Tuesday night's win over Mississippi State and continued his perfect run against the Gamecocks. Tennessee improved to 13-2 and started 3-0 in the Southeastern Conference for the first time in four years. South Carolina is now 7-8 overall and 0-2 in the SEC. Former Blythewood star Julian Phillips, a Tennessee freshman who finished his high school career at Linc Prep in Missouri, scored eight points in his first game in Columbia since his junior season.
