South Carolina may be 11-10, but they’re 6-2 in SEC play with wins over Mississippi State, Florida, and Auburn. After a brutal non-conference run, Frank Martin has his team playing as well as anyone in the SEC, according to John Calipari.

“Frank has South Carolina playing so well right now,” Cal said on this morning’s SEC Teleconference. “They do what they do defensively. They’re disruptive, they play physical, they rebound with five guys but he’s also got them playing fast, so now you’ve got a team that can stop you from scoring and disrupt your offense yet they’re making threes.
