Gotta win this one today. So common for teams to experience a letdown after a huge win. While I’d love to dominate, all that matters today is to get a win.
Gamecocks vs Mizzou Thread
- Thread starter Fried Chicken
- Start date
Little sluggish first couple of offensive possessions. Down 4-0 early. Turnover. If Mizzou scores I’d call timeout
They said this on TV as well. I’d say at this point he won’t. But with Ugusuk lighting it up, no reason to risk it.
Couple of productive possessions for Mizzou. They have quietly cut it to 8. Mack to the line. We need these FTs. Don’t need to let them get close.
Mack misses the first. Gets the 2nd. Let’s end this half strong boys!

We’ve gotten sloppy. Missouri cuts it to 4 and Mack answers to get it back to 6. 32-26 with 2:21.
Missouri playing zone on defense. Usually questionable against a strong 3-pt. shooting team, but we'll see how that goes....
We seem a little reluctant. But that’s twice in a couple of minutes they’ve given Mack the 8’ jumper. We need to keep feeding it to him for that one.
39-29 at the half. Cooper with a big shot as the clock winds down. Feel good about this one.
Gamecocks lead 39-29 at the halftime break. BJ Mack leads the Gamecocks with 15 pts, and reserve Morris Ugusuk came off the bench to add 8 pts. Gamecocks shot 15-27 (56%) from the field, 6-13 (46%) from the 3-pt. line, and 3-4 (75%) from the charity stripe.....
40-39 Missouri. Disasterous start to the 2nd half. No movement of the ball offensively. Should’ve called a timeout after the 3 to cut it to 1. Should be fine, but have to move the ball on offense to get better looks. Settling way too much.
Murray-Boyles with a big block defensively and huge offensive rebound and put back. Missouri answers though.
tied at 44. 14:25 to go

Murray-Boyles again! Huge play. 46-44 with a FT coming after the timeout. This is going to be a battle. Defense needs to tighten up. Way too easy for them in this 2nd half so far.
Massive! Missouri’s Cooper walks every time he gets the ball in the paint. Can’t believe they haven’t at least called one today. They’re pretty obvious.
Clark needs to learn to fall back. Just got ran over but stays on his feet and get called for the defensive foul. That should’ve been an easy one to take.
we’ve picked up fouls on this possession and then give up a bucket. Brutal.

That was an obvious charge - Mizz guy lowered his shoulder - text book charge that the refs missed
Rare miss from Johnson. And by rare, I mean 0-9. I agree with announcers though…gotta shoot through it. He’s a streaky guy. But I’d like to see Meechie drive with the basketball the next time he touches it. Make something happen or get an easy bucket. Everything is tossed inside or outside shot. No penetration by our guards.
Our offense has gone Frank Martin era cold here the last 4 minutes.
