Gamecocks face the 'mighty' UT

No not Texas but the Univ of Tennessee. UT is currently ranked eighth with a 13-1 record and will square off in the Colonial Center on Saturday night against the mighty Gamecocks.

But get this: The Gamecocks are 5-1 at home against UT in coach Dave Odom’s six years. This, however, could be the best UT team the Gamecocks have faced under Odom. The Volunteers are coming off an 85-83 win over No. 16 Mississippi and heading into this week’s play they ranked second in the nation in steals (12.2 a game) and fourth in scoring (87.4 points).

Should be a good one and maybe the Gamecocks can avoid a quality loss and win....gosh knows the coach needs to win.
