The South Carolina basketball team looks to turn things around in the SEC Tournament.
The South Carolina basketball team ended a disappointing 2021 regular season with a 28-point loss to Kentucky on Saturday. That loss dropped the Gamecocks to 6-14 on the year, with a 4-12 mark in conference play.
Those four SEC wins have South Carolina slotted as the tournament’s 11-seed heading into the event, meaning they’ll be slated to play the sixth-seeded Ole Miss Rebels on Thursday night. The 12th placed conference finish is the Gamecocks’ worst since the 2013-14 season.
