LEXINGTON, Ky., Jan. 28 (UPI) -- Ramel Bradley scored a team-high 21 points Sunday afternoon as No. 25 Kentucky clubbed Tennessee, 76-57.

The Wildcats trailed, 32-31, at halftime but used strong three-point shooting and out-scored the Volunteers, 45-25, in the second half.

Reserve Jodie Meeks had 16 points and five rebounds, and Joe Crawford had 15 points and three rebounds for Kentucky (16-5, 5-2 SEC), which broke a two-game skid despite having no assists.
