In basketball on Tuesday.

Haven't followed them at all, but see they are 9-5, which seems like a significant drop-off for them from last season, when they had 6 losses total. They have played a pretty rigorous schedule, taking losses to Clemson and then 3 straight losses to top 10 teams, Purdue, Creighton and Arizona. They won by 3 at Vandy, who now sits at 5-9 and has taken losses to Presbyterian and Western Carolina.

Don't see a line for the game yet, but seems like a bit much for them say we basically have no shot at winning. Is their record simply a product of their schedule?

Yeah, their schedule has been brutal. Clem beat them on their court by about the same margin they beat us at Littlejohn. I think it's going to be a good game. I was a little surprised they struggled with Vandy. Vandy does not look good at all.

The line is +12 for us. Obviously the biggest hurdle for us so far this season. Winning this game on the road would be a monumental feat.

Last time South Carolina beat Alabama was 30 January 2016, Last time South Carolina won in Tuscaloosa was 14 February 2009. SOUTH CAROLINA IS WAY OVERDUE TO BEAT ALABAMA.

Bama is 2nd nationally in ppg scored. We are 16th nationally in ppg allowed.

To crush your enemies. See them driven before you. And to hear the lamentations of their women.
