It is an SEC-on-SEC battle in the Final Four as the Texas Longhorns face the defending national champion South Carolina Gamecocks. Fans can see the action when it gets underway from the Amalie Arena in Tampa,  FL, at 7 p.m. EST with the broadcast set for ESPN/ESPN2/ESPN+.

One thing is certain regarding this game: South Carolina and Texas are pretty familiar with each other. They played twice during the regular season, with each team winning once and then again in the SEC tournament final. South Carolina took the first in January 67-50, Texas the second roughly a month later 66-62. The Gamecocks won the SEC tournament final 64-45. To earn their spot in the Final Four, Texas had to take down Hailey Van Lith and the TCU Horned Frogs. The Longhorns held TCU to 12-45 from the field and 20% from three-point range en route to a 58-47 win. South Carolina had a more challenging game, needing a 16-8 fourth quarter to beat Duke 54-50.

The Gamecocks also had a hard fight against Maryland in the Sweet 16, winning 71-67. Texas won by a comfortable margin in each game. South Carolina was the betting favorite in all three prior games against Texas.

Our Texas Longhorns vs South Carolina Gamecocks Prediction

In the SEC tournament final, South Carolina held Texas to 29.6 percent from the field while shooting 42.9% themselves. When Texas beat South Carolina, the Longhorns shot 44.1% from the field while holding the Gamecocks to 36.8%.  Each dominated the paint in their respective wins, which makes sense since neither shoots too many threes. The winner of this game will be whoever plays better defense without sacrificing their own offense. Based on their Elite Eight games, I’d lean towards Texas, but after watching these two play three times now, I’m not going to bother picking a winner.
