South Carolina lost their first game of the SEC Tournament to Ole Miss on Wednesday to fall to 42-14 on the season. The ugly blowout at the hands of the Rebels sent the Gamecocks down to the losers bracket, where they face the Texas A&M Aggies this morning in an elimination game.
Avoiding going 0-2 in Hoover won't be easy for the Gamecocks, as they have to get past an Aggie team that is the #3 seed in the tournament and ranked as high as #1 in the country. South Carolina played Texas A&M in a regular season series in Columbia not quite two weeks ago and managed to win just one game in three.
