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


North Carolina
Texas
Louisville
Kansas

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.

and wait til you see this Ulis kid play for UK if you haven't already. He's the anti-Gray. In complete control of everything when he's on the floor. Doesn't make a bad decision.

He's in the second platoon because of deference to Andrew Harrison, but he's better than Andrew Harrison.

I meant to say in SEC play. We may not be the most talented team they have played but I still believe we are the most athletic. Our starting 5 is just as big as Uk's. There hasn't been one team they played this year tht actually matched there size and athleticism

And the best of them all is 6'8" Montrezl Harrell. He is a beast.
