Uros Plavsic got his second start of the season against LSU, and delivered similar results. The seven-footer put up 12 points and grabbed six rebounds, playing a career high 28 minutes in Tennessee’s big win over the Tigers. However, his impact goes further than a statsheet. Uros has given Tennessee something that they’ve needed all season long — an attitude and an edge.
The game against LSU was filled with emotion, and that started before the game. The two teams had to be separated pregame after LSU coaches were apparently sending Tennessee basketballs soaring into the stands.
