South Carolina has been the tourney underdog darling, beating Duke and Baylor the last two games as a dog each time. They have the SEC Player of the Year leading the charge in Sindarius Thornwell. They come off a 70-50 crushing of Baylor and is playing like an overachieving club with no pressure on them. The Baylor Bears shot just 30.4% from the field. South Carolina head coach Frank Martin is now 9-4 SU all-time in NCAA Tournament games and gets his guys to play great team defense at second in the conference in defensive rebounds, plus they led the SEC in scoring. South Carolina is 4-2 SU at neutral sites this season, including an upset of then #16 Syracuse at the Barclays Center. The Gamecocks are also 20-8-1 ATS in their last 29 neutral-site games. Play South Carolina.
