What the heck. State 75 Carolina 70...

This is indeed a teetering on the cliff moment. USC has already fallen off and will be just trying to grab us and take us over with them. Might as well pick the good guys.

Nope, not painful enough... we win tonight, win Saturday, and make Sunday in sec tourney losing on a last second half court shot. We then get left out of tourney

We finally put it all together. The NCAAT basically began with the loss to TAMU. Any game in which we are not a significant underdog is must win. That's what happens when you lose to La Tech and NM St on home and de facto home courts.

One cannot spell disappointment without NIT. Hell, there's two sets in there for good measure.

Kinda like 2010 when we lost to #2 UK in the SECT final via the criminally negligent blown lane violation and failed to get in with 24 wins.

No way in hell State wins this game. South Carolina is really tough in their gym. They beat Kentucky earlier in the year there. I just don’t see State going on the road and out-toughing them in their house. Hope I’m wrong but the trend is as soon as fans start to think they can make the Tourney they lay an egg and pull the rug out from under the fans.

South Carolina-74
State-67

They're 1-3 vs NCAAT caliber teams at home. It's doable if we're that caliber.

South Carolina 75, State 50 - We have too much hope for this team not to totally blow it.
