Projection: likely out
South Carolina’s resume shows several weaknesses, particularly in their offensive and defensive computer rankings, indicating inconsistency in both areas. The losses to Indiana and Xavier highlight challenges against higher-tier competition. While they have secured victories against teams like Virginia Tech and East Carolina, those wins are not enough to compensate for the missed opportunities. Additionally, the upcoming games against formidable opponents like Alabama and Kentucky present critical tests; strong performances in those matchups could bolster their standing, while poor showings would likely seal their fate outside of the tournament.
