They've been the backbone of this UK team in the past, and they will be in the future, and they were on Saturday. In a 65-62 win at Tennessee, Anthony Davis and Michael Kidd-Gilchrist toppled the Volunteers with 35 points and 20 rebounds combined. In crunch time, it was not a road-tested veteran who took over the game. It was that freshman pair, scoring 13 of UK's last 18 points, who got it done. Even better for UK, they're learning, and it's showing.
