Commodores close regular season against visiting Gamecocks

NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

03/06/2010 - Nashville, TN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The South Carolina Gamecocks carry a six-game losing streak into today's regular-season finale against the 13th-ranked Vanderbilt Commodores, who are on a major roll.

At one point last month, the Gamecocks appeared to be in contention for an NCAA Tournament bid, but their poor play over the last three weeks has dashed those hopes. South Carolina was most recently in action on Wednesday when it fell to Alabama in a 79-70 final. As a result, the Gamecocks fell to 14-15 overall and 5-10 in league play.

As for Vanderbilt, it has won its last three games and six of its last seven to move to 23-6 overall and 12-3 in conference. The Commodores defeated Florida in Gainesville on Tuesday, 64-60, and bring a 14-1 home record into today's affair.

Vanderbilt beat South Carolina, 89-79, back in January to take a 23-22 lead in the all-time series.

Sure, Devan Downey's scoring output of 22.5 ppg and his 81 steals are impressive, but the South Carolina standout does have as many turnovers as assists and is shooting a lackluster 40 percent from the floor. Brandis Raley- Ross checks in with 11.1 ppg for the Gamecocks, who are getting 10.0 ppg from Sam Muldrow. South Carolina is scoring 72.0 ppg through 29 games, and the team is allowing 70.9 ppg. Rebounding has been an area of weakness for the Gamecocks, who are pulling down 5.5 rpg fewer than the opposition. Downey scored 23 points and handed out five assists against Alabama on Wednesday, while Ramon Galloway pitched in 21 points off the bench. Unfortunately, the Gamecocks suffered a 49-26 rebounding disadvantage and an 18-8 deficit in points from the foul line.

There are four double-digit scorers in the fold for Vanderbilt, and Jermaine Beal leads the way with 14.5 ppg. Both Jeffery Taylor and A.J. Ogilvy add 13.9 ppg, and Ogilvy is pulling down 6.2 rpg to go along with 45 blocked shots. Rounding out the foursome is freshman sharpshooter John Jenkins, as he supplies 10.6 ppg on the strength of his 46.6 percent accuracy from three- point range. The Commodores are netting 78.2 ppg while holding opponents to 69.1 ppg on 40.9 percent field goal efficiency. In the narrow victory over Florida last time out, Jenkins hit 6-of-9 three-point attempts en route to 18 points, while Ogilvy pitched in 16 points and eight rebounds. Beal tallied 13 points and six assists for the Commodores, who limited the Gators to 36.5 percent shooting from the field, including 2-of-13 from three-point range.
