Vanderbilt basketball is back in the March Madness bracket projections after beating Tennessee.

The Commodores (15-3, 3-2 SEC) had previously fallen out of the brackets after losses to Mississippi State and Missouri.

This week, Vanderbilt had a last-second win against South Carolina before beating the Vols.

It’s possible that both the men’s and women’s teams could qualify for March Madness, which has not happened since 2012.
