I think this game is called as stupid as every other game this year has been. I dont want the best players for either team to ride the pine. Its boring to watch the ball boys from both teams play the last 8 minutes of the first half in every game. If UL plays their typical scrappy pressing defense they could wind up in foul trouble against a team whose players are on their level. If UKs guards cant keep their hands off ULs guards and theyre calling the crappy handchecks UKs backcourt will be on the bench really early. I havent watched but a couple UL games against very inferior teams, but if SVT is as slow and akward as he was last year UL cant afford foul trouble on the interior like UK can. Lee and Johnson can come off the bench and do a decent enough job. I'll say it again, it all comes down to tempo. If its a fast paced up and down game, advantage UL. If its a slow it down, pound it inside, foulfest, advantage UK

I also find it ironic that we're all picking the other team to win, maybe its a product of both fanbases having watched our teams enough to not have much confidence. One thing for sure, I'll be leaving Dale Hollow early to be home to watch it
