Tennessee basketball stunned the No. 6 Alabama Crimson Tide. The Vols needed a win to keep their hopes alive for a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament, and Jahmai Mashack delivered one of the most clutch performances in recent memory.
Mashack delivered a couple of clutch moments in the game's final minute, including drawing a foul after a missed free throw, making his two free throws to tie the game at 76 points, and knocking down the game-winning three-point shot.
Tennessee's 79-76 win over Alabama would not have happened without Mashack's toughness and grit in the final seconds of the game, so it only makes sense that he knocked down the game-winner.
If you missed the shot, Vol Nation went ballistic on social media, capturing the shot and reacting to the win.

To make it even better, Mashack nailed the game-winner from The Summitt logo. WBIR's Emilie Rae Cochrane was on the baseline for the game-winning shot and shared an alternate angle of Mashack knocking down the long-range three.
Jahmai Mashack y'all...

Tennessee basketball's X account also shared multiple alternate angles and called on Vol Nation to share their POVs of Mashack's game-winner. As you can expect, the electric crowd went nuts after Mashack's shot went in.
Shack hit the cool walk-off too????

It was nothing short of a frenzy on The Summitt after the game, with media personalities storming the court and Tennessee players smothering Mashack in celebration.
Tennessee now moves on to the final week of the regular season ahead of the SEC Tournament. The Vols will head to Ole Miss for its midweek game before ending the regular season at home against South Carolina.
