Another team we get to be winless versus all time. 0-2 vs Mizzou and 0-1 vs A&M after tonight. Sorry but it's the truth.

thumpin big · 03-02-2013, 12:46 PM

I keep hoping for a well played game by USC. Have not been many this season. But, we played poorly at UGA and still had a chance to win. Maybe we can have a chance tonight. And if we have the chance, maybe we can do what we need to do in order to get the win. Hope so.

I hope Coach Martin lit a fire under their backside since the other night.

If that were possible, it probably would have happened earlier in the season.

A&M isn't very good so this is clearly a winnable game.

SECgamecock453 · 03-02-2013, 06:01 PM

We lost to Auburn, Mississippi State and Vanderbilt. Am I leaving any other truly horrible teams off? That didn't matter.

MSU might be the worst team in any major conference. So I think that about sums in up.

HeadCockFan · 03-02-2013, 06:36 PM

I love Gamecock basketball. No reason to down on this group at this point. Just hopeful that we can pull off an upset and ruin the other team's weekend.

Spurrier_Superior_One · 03-02-2013, 07:06 PM

Basketball better win tonight because I can't take 2 losses in day.

Of course; I also know we won at LSU. I don't subscribe to negativity or pessimism.

@GamecockRadio: As reported on "Countdown to Tip-off," walk-on Brian Steele will get rewarded for his great work in practice by making his 1st career start.

Played pickup with Brian last year. He is sick. Always thought he was better than the guys who usually play.
