Last Sunday in Knoxville TN, many Tennessee fans were accustomed to a top 5 team playing an unranked team in the Mississippi State Tennessee series. What they weren’t used to was MSU being the top 5 team and Tennessee being the unranked team. The Bulldogs defeated Tennessee by a final score of 74-64. But the story to me is not just the fact that they won for the first time ever in Knoxville TN. Its the fact that MSU won because of their depth.
Indeed the starters were struggling a bit in the first half. While Victoria Vivians did have an impressive 20 points in the game, she did only shoot from 28%(which getting 20 points on 28% shooting is amazing in itself).
