One obvious thing that TN was prepared for versus Kentucky was to slow up their transition game. Almost every time Kentucky tried to push the ball, there were 2 or 3 Volunteers already back on defense. They obviously worked very hard in practice on disrupting their offense.
One other thing happening last night that was the best I've seen all year was TN's reaction to double and triple teams. When you are being double teamed that means somebody is not being guarded. TN players did a great job recognizing the defense before being trapped. They were outstanding at attracting doubles and triples and passing the ball before the traps were established.
