In that one, UK led by as much as 14 in the second half only to see the Gamecocks twice tie it in the final four minutes. UK won 69-63. But we also know we can play with them. Earlier this week, Fogler tabbed Kentucky as the favorite to win the SEC Tournament. I believe in good shots go in more often than bad shots.
Execution wins most of the time.
After a regular-season victory over UT, Ole Miss center Rahim Lockhart criticized the Vols as lacking a team concept. Slay noted Lockhart's inside strength. But Slay wanted no part of firing a verbal salvo Lockhart's way. He remembered Lockhart's words. I don't need to flag a red cape in front of the bull, though.
