Heading into this one, everyone was (rightfully) talking about Arkansas’ ability to play fast. Turns out it was Tennessee who was looking to play fast today.
Everything was falling for the Vols early, who started 15-18 from the field and 6-7 from three point range. The early story was Jordan Bone, who couldn’t miss. He hit a couple of three pointers of his own, but paced Tennessee’s offense by slashing through the paint and getting good looks. Admiral Schofield got in on the action, hitting a couple of tough fade-aways from the paint. James Daniel did too, connect on each of his three long range attempts.
