You couldn’t have asked for a better start as the Tennessee basketball team hit their first three long-range jumpers of the game. Admiral Schofield picked up right where he left off canning two back-to-back three’s.
It was a blistering start for the Vols making eight of their first twelve shots. Why was it happening so easy? Jordan Bone. Bone was very effective penetrating the Hawkeyes’ zone defense early on in the game. Oh, and the offensive gameplan was fantastic, Grant Williams was getting a touch almost every possession.
What does Grant getting touches often correlate to? Nine assists on 18 made baskets with six made three-point shots.
