In a game needing a big play, Duane Notice provided it.
Notice scored just six points and was only 1-7 from the floor, but his big three-point make with 2:15 left gave South Carolina a wave of momentum they rode all the way to a 63-57 victory over Mississippi State on Senior Day at Colonial Life Arena.
The Gamecocks were looking to avoid dropping a game in which they had a 10-point lead - 45-35 - with 12:53 left. But the offense went cold: the Bulldogs built a 17-5 run spanning 8:19 to take a 52-50 lead with 4:33 left in regulation.
