KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) South Carolina couldn't miss from 3-point range and still couldn't put up much of a challenge against No. 1 Tennessee.

Admiral Schofield had 21 points and 10 rebounds as the top-ranked Volunteers defeated South Carolina 85-73 on Wednesday for their school-record 19th consecutive victory. South Carolina (12-12, 7-4 SEC) made a season-high 14 3-point baskets and shot 60.9 percent from beyond the arc, but still trailed by double digits throughout the last 28 1/2 minutes.

"It's a game at the end of the day, and they're going to make shots and we're going to make shots," Schofield said. "It's just we've got to eliminate as many opportunities for them to score as we can, and that's our job. That's what defense is, just trying to steal possessions away from them and create more for ourselves, especially on the offensive glass."
