1. Vols did exactly what you want, dominated early and got lots of guys minute. Nobody played more than 22 minutes, and all 16 Vols got some playing time.
2. 1st half was about as good of basketball on both ends that I've seen in a looooong time. Offensively Vols shot 57% to their 26%, and we had 12 assists with 0 turnover, Presbyterian had 13 turnovers. 46-14 at the half is probably better than you could've asked for, great to see. Yes the margin dipped some and Presbyterian scored some in the 2nd half, but Tennessee definitely called off the dogs early on in this one.
3. Schofield and Williams looked like the guys we expected to see, pure dominance from them, combined to go 12-20fg 36pts 12rbd in just 41 total minutes.
4. Jordan Bowden had a helluva first half, 16mins 15pts 6-6fg 3-3 on 3pt...however that's also what he finished with. In his defense he only played 6 second half minutes, hopefully in a more competitive game he will keep the aggressiveness up because he can be a serious weapon.
5. Honestly not a whole lot to say, the best thing about tonight is that it was exactly what you wanted. We got a lot of guys minutes that needed them, wish Pons could've played more but hopefully he's ready to go Tuesday.
6. Vols are 1-0, let's get that 2nd win Tuesday night and then strap up for Atlantis.
