Jordan Gainey saved the day for Tennessee on Saturday night.

Gainey, with the game tied and only about five seconds left, sprinted the length of the court and made a last-second layup to lift the Volunteers to a stunning 66-64 win over Illinois at the buzzer.

That moved the Volunteers to a perfect 10-0, marking their best start since the 1999-2000 campaign.
