Where Gamecock MBB Stands One Week Into SEC Play
The South Carolina Gamecocks knew that the intensity levels would ratchet up quickly once they got into SEC play. That notion has panned out three games in, with Lamont Paris' squad defeating Mississippi State and Missouri by six and two points, respectively, and dropping a game in blowout fashion to the Alabama Crimson Tide.
This leaves the Gamecocks at 2-1 one week into conference play, but where do they stand compared to the rest of the SEC?
