There was a time this season when South Carolina was rolling from win to win, beating teams by a lot of runs or doing it in dramatic walkoff fashion, giving fans entertainment and heart palpitations. Then things took a turn, and the Gamecocks have found themselves on the wrong end of game after game, mired now in a three-game losing streak after falling to No. 15 Auburn on Friday night.
The Tigers got on the board first, taking a 3-0 lead in the top of the second inning on RBI singles from Conor Davis, Kason Howell, and Judd Ward.
