Big night for South Carolina mens basketball

They really need a win tonight to stay a 1 seed after losing against UConn and Texas. Oh wait that’s women’s basketball. Tonight South Carolina is looking to end a 12 game losing streak and get their first win of conference play. They are playing a .500 LSU so if they don’t win tonight I think they have a really good chance of finishing winless and on a major losing streak.

They don’t play together as a team. Too many transfers.

That's a real shame. NOT! Shamecocks are still not relevant in basketball.
Baseball? Wins over Sacred Heart not impressing anyone.. except local fans and SCAR spots talk hosts.

Thankfully they play in the SEC so all their losses are supposedly good losses.

Helps their NET and as a result, our loss to them doesn’t look as bad.

What a stupid ranking system… it’s based on subjectivity instead of objectivity. We need to get away from this liberal nonsense. Wins and losses matter.

That Capon team is 2 - 13 since the OT win against Clemson...

and based on the remaining schedule, it is entirely possible they finish 0-18 in league play.
This was just one of those inexplicable head scratching type losses that CBB's teams have every year.

Yep, absent the SCAR and Ga Tech losses, we're most likely in top 10, top 15 at worst and leading the ACC for #1 seed in ACCT.

Let's be honest, you call it "dramatic" because you don't like it...

but you know that it is a totally, completely, and entirely accurate statement, and there are more than enough examples to support my position.

Whenever they play us, it is indeed their SUPERBOWL. And it’s not just the teams or the coaches, but THEIR FANS act and react like it’s their SUPERBOWL. It’s like their very lives depend on beating their big brothers. It’s incredibly sad and pathetic. Did anyone else get sick and disgusted by the fans’ behavior while watching that game? Excuse me while I vomit. I sincerely hope they lose out - whether it hurts our RPI or whatever or what.

I know, I know Tlaw. It is sometimes difficult to tell the difference between the Coot Men and Coot Women BB teams and to be honest, some of them don't know the difference either. Completely understand.

Heard on WCCP yesterday: South Carolina was 10-4 and ranked 88th in the NET on December 30th. Since then, they've lost 13 straight and they only dropped to 95th in the NET. Theres 9 ACC teams ranked lower than 95 in the NET. SO they get to get blown out by SEC opponents but they're "quality losses" just mean more.

Wow - that is easily the best summary of a totally failed system. Luckily this year it favors us.

Yep...lose 13 straight games drop 7 slots in the NET rankings. Absurd.

And their lone Q1 win...of course, Clemson. We were a Q1 win for them at the time we lost (26), but we fell down to Q2 by Dec 30 (36), but have risen back to Q1 today (25).
All 13 their losses were to Q1 or Q2 teams, and meanwhile some of the Q4 wins improved into Q3 wins. I don't have the gumption to slog through all the rankings to work out exactly what those losses and wins were.
