Meighan Simmons had 15 points and Kamiko Williams added 14 for the Lady Vols (22-2, 10-0 SEC), winners of 13 straight games.
Victoria Dunlap recorded 20 points with nine boards for the Wildcats (18-5, 7-3), whose seven-game win streak was halted. A'dia Mathies poured in 18 with four assists in a losing cause.
