We matchup well with SC. Our production should come from 3/4&5. If we keep downey around 15 pts we win.

Here are my thoughts.........

Carolina (Jr.) learned some things in the Kentucky game about their big men and the ability of those big men to block shots. That being said, I think that you will not see as much help defense come to the slasher from the post, I think it will come from Carolina's guards. Thus, leaving one of our guards open at the top of the key.

1.) Slash to the basket from the wing (J.P.??)
2.) Make a S.C. guard slack down to help defend (Downey??)
3.) Kick out for a three (Maze?? Hopson?? Tatum?? Tyler??)
4.) Make the three...............

This will lead to making their bigs to HAVE TO defend the slasher, leaving a dump off to Wayne or Brian down low.

Our guys are going to have to shoot a high 3pt percentage like they did against Florida or they WILL NOT win this game. The game plan must also get Chism, Williams and Smith heavily involved in the paint. Everything has to be clicking for us to win against a hungry Gamecock team. Go Vols! :rock:

I live in Greenville, SC. Four of us are going down. We'll be orange!!
I think one of the keys is Chism not getting two quick fouls early on. It seems like when he gets caught early and has to sit that is affects his game the rest of the way. We need Chism and Williams on the floor at the same time to control the boards.
Hope we get off to a quick start and spoil their "Garnet" night.

Let's go Cocks! Gonna be a GREAT game. I've seen many people on here (or another thread at least) say that the key for UT is to play fast and wear the Gamecocks down. Sorry to say it, but if they try that, it won't work for very long. SC is the fastest paced team in the SEC. The key for UT is getting SC's big men in foul trouble early and keeping a slow pace.

Thus far UT has benefited from the pace

You couldn't have done worse if you waited until after the game and posted the opposite of what happened.

Lol - he obviously hasn't watched SEC basketball the past 3 years since CBP got here. He jumped aboard the bandwagon when Horn was hired.

I'm going to go out on a limb and predict that we don't see a post #2 from GamecockSmitty.
