It's a non-conference showdown between two power conference programs. The South Carolina Gamecocks from the SEC visit the No. 16 Indiana Hoosiers of the Big Ten in the Hoosier State this Saturday afternoon.
The Hoosiers (2-0) overcame a slow start in their season opener against Eastern Illinois, dominating the second half to secure the win. Indiana’s emerging Big Three—Mackenzie Mgbako, Oumar Ballo, and Malik Reneau—has been formidable, averaging a combined 56.5 points and 21 rebounds per game. Head coach Mike Woodson, now in his fourth season, seems to have the team clicking early in the year.
On the other side, the Gamecocks (2-1) come off a commanding victory over Towson, but their offense has struggled from beyond the arc. Only one of South Carolina’s top four scorers has connected on a three-pointer, and the team is shooting just 29.7% from deep. Head coach Lamont Paris, entering his third season, will look to tighten things up as South Carolina faces a significant test on the road.
