"It definitely made me more hungry. I definitely wanted to win,'' he said. "If anything, I want to win at Rupp Arena. I plan on winning, before I leave, at Rupp Arena. I'm saying that on the record right now. It made me more hungry and made me dislike Kentucky more.''

Today is your last chance to make this statement true. Today you are going against 2 potential lottery picks down low. Today is where you can shut your doubters up. Today is the day you can make your money and raise your draft stock. Today is the day you can show everyone you're the strongest big in SEC! Today is the day you put your money where your mouth is!

He has to take care of the ball, continue to shoot well at the line, and stay out of foul trouble. All will be extremely hard but if he does all 3 of these things I think we have a shot. He's the X factor today IMO!

If he can handle Randle,
He should be ready for the NBA.

This...and it is possible. Look what he did versus Drummond, but that was at home and the Refs let him play. I don't see them letting these two play physical today.

Depends on the crew we draw.

Don't put the ball on the floor when your teammates hit you with a pass, don't hesitate, just go the F up with it.

At this point nobody will expect you to go right up with it so maybe you catch their shot blockers off guard a bit.

Dont count on it! He always chokes in big game! If we can get 7 points and 5 Rebs out him today it will be a success! That's what he averages against ranked teams! Which is terrible! You better not count on him for us to win today! I hope Richardson and the rest can play lights out! Go vols!

I hope he has the game of his life. A lot of it rides on how he starts out. If he starts bad, it may not be pretty. If he can get a couple early shots to fall, we may have a good chance.

It comes down to this. You can tell how he will play all game in the 1st couple of minutes.

Turnovers, rebounding, defense, good shot selection. Handle those things and we win.

Would be a decent game to surprise them with a zone and just get out on their 2 shooters. I'd rather give them 3's than open lane after open lane to the basket.

I would agree. You and I both know Zo won't do it. He's stuck on his man to man. A zone would be deadly with the length of our guards
