Hogs-Gamecocks: Long time coming

Tipoff is 5:30 p.m. Central in Colonial Life Arena in Columbia, S.C. The game will be televised on the SEC Network.

Arkansas and South Carolina were set to play in a second-round SEC Tournament game on March 12, 2020 -- 355 days ago -- in Nashville, Tenn., after the Razorbacks beat Vanderbilt 86-73.

But about nine hours before tipoff in Bridgestone Arena, the SEC announced that it was canceling the rest of the tournament because of the coronavirus pandemic.

Other conferences also canceled tournaments in the wake of the news the NBA was suspending its season because Utah Jazz player Rudy Gobert had tested positive for the coronavirus.
