The matchup seemed hopeless on paper, and Kentucky appeared just as daunting when it took the floor before a Big Blue mass of 24,402 Saturday night. But the Cinderella Vols believed they could win, and for 30 minutes the glass slipper fit in Rupp Arena. “This is a game we could have won,” said UT senior point guard Bobby Maze, who led the Vols with 15 points. “By losing to Vandy twice, people on the outside had a right to think we'd get blown out.”
