Texas A&M-South Carolina Prediction
The South Carolina Gamecocks spent the month of January outmaneuvering the rest of the SEC. Then they arrived at the SEC-Big 12 Challenge and lost at Oklahoma State. They haven’t been the same team since. South Carolina is still plucky and resilient at home. It dealt a blow to Arkansas’ NCAA Tournament chances a week ago, but South Carolina’s parade of February losses has substantially eroded the quality of its season. This is a game in which teams are more realistically playing for an NIT spot than an NCAA bid. South Carolina just finished playing Tennessee. There are two schools of thought when a team plays a game after taking on the No. 1 team in the country: One, the Gamecocks will suffer a letdown and be flat. Two, South Carolina will have a better understanding of how to play. I choose two. South Carolina 74, Texas A&M 63. (Matt Zemek)
