This will be the ultimate shot at redemption for Tre Scott since his missed dunk in the closing seconds of this game 2 years ago cost us a shot at OT and a chance to share the AAC title with SMU. As a team we shot horrible that game, and if it weren't for some late heroics by Evans, we could've lost by double digits.
Focusing on tomorrow, UCF is playing their best basketball of the season right now. Since losing to us, they've shot 50% from the field over their past 3 games (SMU, @USF, @Houston).
Tacko in particular has been immense, averaging 18 ppg and 11.7 rpg over the past 3 games. He hasn't blocked a shot in either of his past 2 games (despite playing 30/min game) which shows teams have been very conscious about not shooting within his vicinity.
