South Carolina Gamecocks are set to face Arkansas Razorbacks in a crucial first-round SEC Tournament matchup. The Gamecocks must win to keep their season alive, as any loss would mean the end of their season.
In their last meeting just 10 days ago, the Gamecocks dominated the Razorbacks with a 72-53 victory, holding them to under 30 percent shooting. South Carolina’s Collin Murray-Boyles had a career-high performance with 35 points. However, Arkansas will be looking to make adjustments and learn from their defeat in the upcoming game.
The game could potentially be Murray-Boyles’ last with the Gamecocks, as the sophomore forward is considered a high NBA Draft pick candidate. Arkansas will be missing key players including Adou Thiero and Boogie Fland, further giving South Carolina an advantage.
The matchup will take place on Wednesday, March 12 at 1 p.m. at Bridgestone Arena and will be televised on SEC Network. With a 32.0 percent chance of winning according to ESPN, South Carolina will need to bring their A-game to secure a victory and continue their tournament run.
