| The Gamecocks jump out to a big lead behind red hot shooting from the entire team, but mostly from the guards Destanni Henderson and Zia Cooke, as they lead 26-6 after one period. Henderson has 7 points on 3-3 shooting, and Cooke has 8 pts on 3-4 shooting, as the Gamecocks shot 10-14 (71.4%) for the quarter, while holding Alabama to 3-13 (23.1%) shooting. The Gamecocks jumped out to a 12-0 score, and the Tide didn't score their first points until right at the midway point of the quarter....

| Just like that, as red hot as the Gamecocks shooting was, it goes cold. Alabama recovers to a degree, and out-scores the Gamecocks 20-16 in the 2nd Quarter, but the Gamecocks still lead 42-26 at the halftime. Cooke and Henderson are still leading the way with 12 and 10 points respectively, and have shot a combined 8-12 from the field, and 4-4 from behind the 3-pt. line.....

| For the 2nd period in a row, Alabama out-scores South Carolina, but thanks to that huge 1st Quarter, the Gamecocks still lead 61-47 after 3 quarters. The Gamecocks are not necessarily shooting badly - they shot 9-17 (52.9%) in the 3rd Qtr., but Alabama shot 7-11 (63.6%), and the Gamecocks committed 7 fouls in the period, sending the Tide to the free throw line for 7 free shots, of which they made 6....

Alabama was out-playing South Carolina in the 2nd half, but just when things started getting tense, and the Tide closed within, The Gamecocks goes 4 for 4 in field goals to end the game, and held Alabama with 0 FGs for the final 5 minutes, and scoreless for the final 2 minutes, to pull out the win 75-63.
They now await the winner between #3 Tennessee and #11 Mississippi getting ready to tip off around 8:30 PM tonight....
