Projection: likely out

South Carolina’s tournament hopes are dim, primarily due to a shaky overall record and a lack of quality wins. While they secured victories against teams like Clemson and Texas, which are significant, their repeated losses against higher-ranked opponents, including a tough stretch against Alabama and Kentucky, diminish their credibility. Additionally, their non-conference results, like the loss to North Florida, raise red flags about their ability to compete consistently. The team's strong defensive stats are overshadowed by their offensive struggles, as evidenced by their inability to break through against the stronger SEC teams. With upcoming games based on their current trajectory, they'll need to secure a couple of marquee wins to shift the narrative in their favor.
