What’s it going to take for the South Carolina basketball team to make the NCAAT?
South Carolina currently sits at just 5-6, with three of those five wins coming in SEC play. The Gamecocks have been up and down, struggling at times to handle the COVID pandemic and keep the team at full strength. As of now, an invite to the NIT is not guaranteed, but there’s still time for Frank Martin’s group to make a late season run, and get into the postseason discussion.
