8/10/12 exhibition game thread..,

Tennessee vs. Atletas Kansas (Lithuania)
1:30 est

This team just beat Georgia the other day, put up 90+ and hit 16 three pointers. Should be a much better barometer than the last game.

I don't want to see another Belmont showing with it raining 3s. I'm interested to see how our peremiter D holds up.

Is that Kansas or Kaunas?
And why are the Vols playing a Lithuanian team in Italy?

According go Quinns schedule, Kansas, but could very well be misspelled. And I don't know why, maybe better competition.

Definitely Atletas Kaunas, not Kansas. Finally found on the internet that Kaunas beat GA 94-90. Close game. I think we'll do better, especially our defense.

Oops..didn't see the above post. I can't find a team from there with Kansas in it. Maybe it was put together for this but either way...

I tried finding that team releated to Georgia but couldn't. Glad it's the same one because it should be a lot better competition then (at least according to stats and what they've previously done.)

Also read that Arkansas is coming to there as well and will play pretty much the same teams. I guess it makes sense for some of these teams from other countries to just set up camp and play all these American teams to get them ready for their seasons too.

Yea that's them, just curious but what on the page made you say they're good?

By the way, they have a 7'2" center.

Wonder if we can tuck that center into a bag and bring him back home?
