South Carolina suffered an unexpected second loss in the 2025-26 NCAA campaign on the road versus the Sooners.

The Gamecocks stayed hot in the second half, shooting 12-for-23 from the floor and 4-for-7 behind the arc. A big reason for USC’s offensive success was its ability to control the point. The Gamecocks won the rebound (36-34) battle against the Sooners and tied their 34 points in the paint.
