Tennessee basketball: No.1 Vols take care of business in Cuonzo’s return

Welcome back to Rocky Top Cuonzo Martin.

Missouri is a tough bunch, from the opening tip they were making everything tough on the Vols’ offense. Jordan Bone was trying his best to carve up the Tigers defense, but they were collapsing on every time the ball found the painted area.

The first half felt like a typical Cuonzo Martin game. Tennessee was able to go on an 18-2 run with a couple of Admiral Schofield three-point jumpers. However, Missouri fought back and was only down six at halftime.

It was a great start to the second half for Tennessee.
