Also I believe that UK has not seen this size and athleticism from 5 players all year ( or should I say 4) lol! I think this may give them fits since they have been use to just bullying there opponents

I'm pretty sure UK has played teams with plenty of bigs. UK's defense is smothering. 6'6" along the perimeter will cause plenty of problems for LSU. And, it's not just the length, it's the fact that it's tough to screen against UK. They are able to switch everything outside.

That said, UK plays great when it wants to play great and prove something. It also has the tendency to have lapses in energy when they just don't think the other team has a chance...that's the opening LSU needs.
