Tennessee and Virginia Tech met at Bristol Motor Speedway in Tennessee on Saturday for the “Battle at Bristol,” which led to incredible photos and attendance numbers.
Around 150,000 fans were expected to attend the spectacular game. Photos from the venue were awesome, so we have shared them below.

PHOTOS: Shoot 360’s Los Angeles Opening
http://i1.wp.com/www.truesportsfan.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/Starghill160826_0174.jpg?fit=640%2C427
Shoot 360 opened the doors to its newest location in California earlier this month. Located in Torrance, CA, fans from all over Southern California lined up to be the first ones to test out all the amenities and attend a clinic with NBA trainer Dribble2Much.
With two locations in Beaverton, OR, and Vancouver, WA, Shoot 360 looked to set up shop deeper south before expanding across the U.S.
In a time where personal training is in demand and kids are spending countless hours at sports performance facilities to hone their craft, what separates Shoot 360 from other facilities?
“It’s our tech,” says Alex Hartman, Shoot 360’s Creative Director of Brand and Design. “It’s you being connected to the game and it’s easy to train with a trainer whenever you want and be tracked like you’ve never been tracked.”
Eight individual half courts are located on the left side of the facility that are all equipped with “The Gun,” a popular basketball shooting machine that serves as a rebounder and passer with custom settings to assist players with getting extra shooting reps from anywhere on the court.
Atop each basketball court is a flat screen TV that displays a library of 150 drills that can be controlled under the basket, providing instant audio and video feedback as it tracks the degree of each shot. The ideal degree of arc when shooting the ball is anywhere in the 43-47-degree range (45 degrees being perfect). The lower the gap, the more consistent the player is.
According to Hartman, when Stephen Curry came into Shoot 360’s Vancouver location a few months back, he rated a half a degree of separation with each one of his shots in the 46-degree range.
If your dribble is a little suspect, there are also eight dribbling stations where all players, no matter the skill level, get tested and ranked from 1 to 115. Once evaluated, players work with a digital trainer that demonstrates an array of ball-handling drills, gives instant feedback and tracks inefficiencies (losing the ball, not being in a proper stance, constantly looking down, etc.).
And if you’re looking to add more inches to your vert, there are four VertiMax’s to help increase athleticism and explosiveness. Just like the shooting and dribbling stations, the athletic performance station offers digital assessment and basketball-specific drills to guide players through any and all functions from warming up to proper stretching techniques to dynamic body weight and performance workouts.
Check out the gallery above for more pictures of Shoot 360. For more information, visit Shoot360.

Michigan Football x Jordan Brand Unveil Official New Gear (PHOTOS)
http://i1.wp.com/www.truesportsfan.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Michigan_Reveal_1600x900_60916.jpg?fit=640%2C360
We’ve known for a minute that Jordan Brand is taking over as the apparel and footwear supplier for Michigan football and basketball, but today the brand finally unveiled the images of what the football team is going to be rocking this season. And all we can say is, Wow. Scroll through the photos above for a look at UM’s gear for next season, including the Jordan Trainer 1 Low in the school’s Maize and Blue colors.
We’re still waiting on the official basketball uniforms, but for now the football jerseys are a big-time hint at what we might see on the court. For even more details on the upcoming partnership and the football uniform itself, head over to the official Nike announcement, or read below:
The University of Michigan is more than just a school. It is a community and family represented by a single letter, two hues: Maize and Blue, and a longstanding tradition of excellence — a reputation of leading both academically and athletically.
On the gridiron, Michigan has, since fielding its first team in 1871, claimed more victories than any other school. The university also lays claim to 11 national championships, over 120 first-team all-Americans and three Heisman trophy winners, including Jordan Brand athlete Charles Woodson. Beyond, the program’s Winged Helmet, introduced in 1938, remains an icon of college football.
Similarly, the Jordan Brand is more than one man. For over 30 years, Jordan Brand has built a culture by pushing the boundaries of innovation and style; the Jumpman logo has come to represent greatness and unites athletes around the world who are willing to push their limits to be the best.
“Michael Jordan never settled. His career was defined by his competitive drive, unwavering work ethic and a dogged pursuit of winning,” says Larry Miller, President of the Jordan Brand. “These same principles have guided the Jordan Brand since its inception, and we see a like-spirit in the University of Michigan. What started with a phone call between Michael and Coach Harbaugh comes to life today in an unprecedented partnership which further diversifies the Jordan Brand’s commitment to football and athletes.”
This fall, that legacy will continue to transcend sport as the Michigan football team debuts the iconic Jumpman on the gridiron.
The Michigan jersey, built on the Nike Vapor Untouchable chasse, features a minimal-seam design and stretch woven materials. Focusing on fit, range of motion and breathability, the jersey includes tailored lines that are articulated to move with the body and laser perforations in the front and back panels to maximize ventilation.
Additionally, taking into account the importance of preparation to success, Jordan Brand will outfit the team with the Jordan Trainer 1 Low. Created by Jordan footwear designers to help eliminate distractions on the practice field and in the weight room, the shoe enhances natural motion, comfort and increased sensory feedback. Speed flex technology in the midsole, Zoom Air in the heel and a Flyweave woven upper facilitate stability and support.
The Jordan Trainer 1 low “Michigan” will be available August 6 on Jordan.com and at The M Den, the official retailer of Michigan Athletics.
Stay tuned to Jordan.com and GoBlueHailMichigan.com for more information on the Michigan x Jordan partnership.
