USC Gamecocks 2024-25 Season: Part Two
- Thread starter JDuro
- Start date
Thoughts on today’s game against Auburn:
1. While winning by 17, we had a ton of sloppy play, missed layups, and weak 3 point shooting. Maybe rusty from having six days off, maybe distracted by the retirement of Aja Wilson’s number.
2. We played everyone who could dress for the game.
3. Tessa seemed a little off today.
4. Lay’s defense was excellent, and she exhibited more control on offense. Light coming on?
4. Strong games by Kitts, Edwards, Bree, and Raven.
5. Auburn was a one player show. Our bench outscored theirs 39-2.
As always, YMMV.

Auburn's Mar'shaun Boston was one assist shy of a triple-double: 10 pts, 9 assists, 11 turnovers........

If you swipe through, you'll see a pic that made me chuckle. It also shows how much of an impact A'ja had while at South Carolina.

South Carolina women's basketball practice players get NIL deal. How Gamecocks, Dawn Staley reacted
See what gifts South Carolina women's basketball players received and why rewarding their hard work is important to coach Dawn Staley.

Nice to see practice players getting a little NIL love here. Very cool.

It’s so wild being a Carolina fan, because I sincerely believe both we have the best coach of her generation, and many of our losses are coaching losses.

Good game plan by Texas. We kept it close but couldn't quite get over the hump for the win. All streaks have to come to an end and at least it was against good competition! I look forward to many more years of facing Vic Schaefer teams at Texas!

We have a very good defensive team. We have good offensive players and depth.
But we are very vulnerable against bigger teams like Texas and UCLA.
Seems likely that SC will make the final four. Probably not going to win the NC.
But certainly capable of it.

Dawn must be pretty happy right now along with Geno. Superbowl is one sided so far.
Wow, that's something that MSU is in the mix for Makeer. Hope she ends up at S. Carolina.
I think SC has gotten just about as much out of Feagin as you could ask since Watkins went down, but the team just doesn’t have a good matchup for a Betts or Oldacre-type post.
SC matches up well with ND, UConn, and LSU.
Doesn’t match up very well with UCLA or Texas.
I’m somewhat in the middle on USC.
It’s going to be all about the draw and the path come tournament time.

It’s weird Edwards sat the entire 4th. We were +9 in the 3rd and tried to play the entire 4th with Feagin in the extended high post to open cuts to the basket instead of playing the lineup that won the 3rd. Cuts off Feagin only worked twice, once for a layup and once for FTs, while she was continually buried in the post on defense and made an awful turnover at a critical moment. Just a weird decision.
Also disappointed we didn’t get Fulwiley back in sooner. Should’ve examined her with a TO and returned her to the game. It was her best performance since last year’s postseason and, as much as I love our freshman PG, she wasn’t ready for that game. Huge TO to give up a Texas runout while she was in and Fulwiley watched 2+ minutes of game time.

Didn’t SC beat Texas by a lot the 1st time?
They did but it was one of the weirdest games I’ve ever seen. They got murdered on the glass and had something like 25 fewer field goal attempts. Texas just shot abysmally poorly. SC was in the game until the very end today and absolutely had a chance to win but I don’t think any SC fans expected a similar game in the rematch.
