Kentucky is in a funk lately while SC is on a roll, gotta pick SC 70-62 though I am rooting hard for Kentucky just to keep both Mizzou and Tenn from a top 4 seed should either get hot later in the season. Or maybe in Tenn case keep them out f the top 8 :rolleyes:
 
I am rooting for SC to win big to get back to a top 10 form before our game.
 
I think this will be a GREAT game

Both teams get after it defensively. Kentucky seems in a bit of a funk right now, some of it could be because of the injuries. Morris knee is still not 100% and Murray is banged up but playing. I like that girl Green coming off the bench, she will be a good little player for Kentucky.

South Carolina offensively is much improved and more dynamic. They are stretching the floor much better. I like this offense so much better than how it was last year with Wilson.
 
USC finally adjusted to their new offense and they have very talented shooters. One dangerous team and I expect them to beat Kentucky in spite of the Kentucky home court advantage. USC will be tough for ICONN but I do not see USC beating UCONN at home.
 
Interesting that 75% think South Carolina will win, but Kentucky is a small 2 point favorite.

I do think South Carolina is playing a lot better now than they were earlier in the season. The one problem I see for them is that they tend to foul a lot.
 
Didn't see Kentucky when they were hot. Thought they were all right when I saw them against Tennessee.

Mitchell is a good coach and UK used to be a persistent antagonist, though I read today USC has won 8 in a row.

Course many of them were with decided talent advantages before and after their transfer fest. Haven't seen the teams on equal terms in a while and this may be pretty close to equal terms.

Second Macy goes out (Stinger?), KY loses coherent offense. :eek:
 
Kentucky's core three (Howard, Murray, and Morris) are very good, but then there a big drop off to the bench.
 
31-28 SC at the half

Jennings 8 pts, 5 reb

Morris 14 pts, 1 ast, 2 blk
 
I’m enjoying this 29-11 run by the Gamecocks. Kentucky was Mizzou before Mizzou, so I always love beating them.
 
55-44 SC end of third

Cuevas-Moore 13 pts, 5 reb, 1 ast

Morris 18 pts, 3 reb, 1 ast, 3 blk
 
In other SEC, Andra Espinoza-Hunter had 10 points after 1Q to lead MSST, who leads LSU 22-4.
 
Kentucky was closing in on SC but ran out of time.

Jennings 18 pts, 12 reb, 1 stl
Cooper 17 pts, 3 reb, 2 ast, 3 stl

Morris 21 pts, 1 reb, 5 ast, 3 blk
Howard 16 pts 3 reb, 1 blk

South Carolina was up 16 pts when with 3 minutes Dawn pulled the majority of her starters to give the bench some time. At this point Kentucky closed well after some sloppy turnovers. They were not threatening SC when Dawn had her regulars in the game midway through the 4th qtr, but it was an entertaining game.

Vic gets criticism on MSU boards for leaving starters in late in seemingly decided games. He's said in interviews that he's never been good at determining when a game is won and after nearly losing two "won" games a few years back he errs on the side of a sure win.
