Hey, look! They're younger than us! All in all, it looks like UT has the advantage in the interior with Chism and Smith. Meanwhile, they have that guard (in this case, it's David Huertas) who accounts for a large portion of the team's offense and will naturally threaten to have a career day against UT. Man, this is beginning to get repetitive.
Go Vols!
