The SEC Tournament tips off Wednesday in Nashville with the South Carolina Gamecocks (12-19) taking on the Arkansas Razorbacks (19-12).
Some brackets have John Calipari’s club on the fringe of an NCAA Tournament invite. If so, the Razorbacks need at least a couple wins in the SEC Tournament. They take the court having won their last two games.
It has been a rough season for the Gamecocks. They have won just two conference games all season. One of those wins, however, was March 1 against these Razorbacks, 72-53. The Gamecocks held Arkansas to 14 points in the first half and Collin Murray-Boyles was fantastic that day scoring a career-high 35 points to lead USC to victory.
