Wofford/Tennessee is an interesting line. 25.5 points is a lot. Tennessee loss 2 exhibition games to Xavier and got smoked by Duke. Wofford took Virginia Tech to the wire in their lone exhibition game.
Looking at the box scores for Tennessee I dont see Jalan Haralson anywhere who was a big get for them. Also Juke Harris who was the man at Wake last year, Dai Dai Ames who was the man at Cal last year, & Terrance Hill who was the man at VCU last year. (He did have an ankle injury against Duke, but expected to start.)
Tennessee game notes say their expected starters tonight are Juke Harris, Terrance Hill, Jalen Haralson, Dewayne Brown (only returning starter), & Miles Rubin. That leaves Tyler Lundblade & Jalen Washington as 2 key transfers coming off the bench.
Rick Barnes teams usually hang their hats on the defensive end, but this teams makeup is completely different with all the high scoring transfers coming in. Will it take time for all these guys to gel? Most certainly considering they are all used to having the ball in their hands.
Is 25.5 points too much? Wofford lacks size where previous Tennessee teams would punish teams. Im leaning towards taking the points here. Nothing locked in though.
