South Carolina drops their fifth game in a row in a close contest to Georgia 81-78. This was one of the better games the Gamecocks have played as a team recently, but there is still a whole lot of room for improvement.
The Gamecocks were able to hold the Bulldogs’ key players to limited scoring, it just wasn’t enough. Terry Roberts was held to a very quiet 10 points while shooting 4-12 from the field. Kario Oquendo had 16 points, but shot 3-9 from the field with 10 of the points coming from the free throw line. Mardrez McBride came up big time for Georgia off the bench, scoring a team high of 17 points while also adding 5 rebounds, 5 assists, and two steals.
