• Through seven games, Tennessee already has faced three Associated Press top-20 teams. • UT’s average margin of defeat against the three AP top-20 teams it has played is 5.7 points. • Tennessee’s four losses this season have come against teams who combine to boast a 24-6 (.800) record (through the games of Sunday, Dec. 4). • A pair of Austin Peay players—forwards Will Triggs and Anthony Campbell—hail from the same hometown as UT assistant coach Jon Harris (Edwardsville, Ill.). All three attended Edwardsville High School. Harris went on to play at Marquette. • Vols forward Dwight Miller and Govs guard TyShawn Edmondson both played one season at Midland College in Texas before transferring to Tennessee and Austin Peay, respectively. Edmondson helped lead the Chaps to a 29-3 record in 2009-10. And Miller led Midland to the NJCAA national title game last season. • Beginning with the Pitt game on Dec. 3, the Volunteers entered a stretch of games during which six of seven contests will be played at home in Thompson-Boling Arena. The Dec. 14 game at College of Charleston is UT’s only game away from Rocky Top during the month of December. • Only once in the last seven years has Tennessee shot better than 70 percent at the free-throw line (.701 in 2005-06). The Vols are shooting .745 at the charity stripe so far this season. • Tennessee players are responsible for the top two individual scoring performances by SEC players so far this season. Jeronne Maymon scored 32 points vs. No. 8 Memphis (11/22/11), and Trae Golden dropped 29 points on UNC Greensboro (11/11/11). Golden also posted the highest assists total in the league this season (11), and Maymon holds the same distinction for rebounding (20). • The Vols finished up Fall semester final exams this week. Spring semester classes begin Jan. 11. • Senior guard Cameron Tatum participated in graduation ceremonies Friday. The Lithonia, Ga., native earned his degree in Africana Studies.
