KNOXVILLE – After hitting his fourth 3-pointer of the game midway through the second half of Tennessee’s 67-48 win against Georgia on Tuesday night, Antonio Barton briefly paused to look down at the 3-point line.

In the moment, it seemed as if the Volunteers’ point guard was telling himself, “Finally.”

At least for one game, his shot was falling at last.

“After every one went in I was just like that,” Barton said after breaking out of a long cold spell with 12 points on four 3s against the Bulldogs.

“Amen,” quipped third-year Tennessee coach Cuonzo Martin.
