The Official #24 Tennessee vs. #13 LSU Game Thread, 6:00 PM ET, ESPN

[RockyTop140]

The offense wasn’t bad either really considering LSU is certainly one of the best defensive teams in the country and has been extremely physical. FTs are still a concern though.

Shooting was hot early but cooled off. The difference is we were actually scoring in the paint with Uros and chandler. I'm not ready to say Uros will solve our issues, but if he's able to give us 10-12 points a game and get some tough rebounds that will help dramatically. Having a post scoring option really takes some pressure off the guards.

We won game one of the revenge tour. Now let's see if we can take Bama and Kentucky when they come into Knoxville. Really wanted this game as much as any game we'll play. Big win tonight!!

Bama doesn't come to Knoxville this year.

It was nice to watch a game and not be at each other’s throats on the board. Hell, @VolFreakJosh and I were liking each other’s posts - what’s next? Human sacrifice? Cats living with dogs, mass hysteria?

Him and ZZ are bringing the attitude we need to win when things get tough.

Uros acting like the big man that he is. This team might actually get an identity.

That's exactly right. We need them to keep it up. I think their toughness is contagious.

Go Vols

I’d call them comparable if not their’s tougher. They had us 2x, UK, AU and Bama in first 7 games. We had LSU 2x, Bama and UK.

They’ve had an almost identical start to ours. That extra game against Auburn definitely gives the edge to them, but it’s wild to only mention their schedule and not ours. We’ve both had it tough.

He is night and day from where he was even at the beginning of the season. He is getting those tough rebounds that he was not getting before.

Villanova, Texas Tech, UNC also on our schedule.

Uros doesn’t even have to go for 10-12pts, just fight for the rebounds, get the second chance buckets, and bring that intensity each night. The team feeds off it and rally’s around it.

Exactly right, my friend. I need to remind myself of that sometimes. Cheers to you.

I’d settle for some mustard.

Cracked me up that besides the Mustard comment that ironically our guy @golfballs liked it.

Villanova, Texas Tech, UNC also on our schedule.

And Arizona.
