Heading into Sunday’s regular season finale, the 2019 recruiting class has posted a record of 121-8. That’s 93.8% of their collegiate games and have gone 42-8 against ranked teams. They’ve also been ranked No.1 in the AP Poll 48 out of a possible 72 weeks throughout their South Carolina careers. In addition, they won the 2022 National Championship and finished as the No.1 team by the AP in 2020 during the COVID-19 season, which canceled the NCAA Tournament. They’ve also won three SEC regular season championships and will have a chance to win a third SEC tournament title in the coming weeks.

As if there was nothing new they could do to re-write the record books, South Carolina heads into today’s regular season finale with a record of (28-0). No Gamecock basketball team has done undefeated in the regular season. The closest occurred in 2019-20 and 2015-16. Both of those USC teams went 28-1 in the regular season.
