Lady Vols basketballĀ proved once and for all that it is not the team that started the season.Tennessee notched a gritty 68-65 comeback win at Missouri on Sunday, even though it trailed by five points with a minute left. It started with a steal and score by Jordan Walker right under Tennessee's basket. Fifteen seconds later, Sara Puckett banked in the game-tying 3-pointer.Then Rickea Jackson took over.Missouri (14-6, 3-4 SEC) held Jackson scoreless for 9:59 of the fourth quarter. But that wasn't enough to win, because Tennessee (16-6, 8-0) got Jackson a one-on-one opportunity on its last possession with the game tied.
