They beat Michigan. We beat them by 17 SWEETMichigan in the bits I've seen of them have looked really good. if south carolina can even just stay with michigan and keep it close, then we'll know sc is legit and we'll have to bring our A game to beat them.
That being said, i predict michigan beats SC by 3 and we beat them by 10.
Thanks! I look forward to checking them out.I'm not sure if anyone has posted about this game, but it's today at 5pm on ESPNU and should be a tough test for the Gamecocks and a good opportunity to scout them.
South Carolina is a one-trick pony -- all out pressing to generate turnovers, which lead to easy scoring opportunities.
Zero cohesive half court offense -- they are all one-one-one slop. I think they'll struggle against zone.
The are relentless on the offensive boards, which partially offsets their subpar offense.
We'll need to man up on the boards. And I'm also a bit concerned [slightly] about our starting lineup and how poorly suited to attacking the press it is. Otherwise, I think we're a bad matchup for them.
With UConn and Georgetown not being very good, I'm really hoping that South Carolina can be a quality non-conference win for us. They're up 8 in the 2nd half right now.
Haven't watched that closely. Flipping around and watching UConn. Not sure USC has much quality guard play. They do have some bangers inside, like you said.
2-26 From the 3. Holy moly Michigan.
is that bad?
