The South Carolina Gamecocks are fresh off a win against Wofford for their seventh win of the young 2010-11 season but it seems they will need to continue to win as their RPI is not strong to start the season. Coach Horn’s squad is currently ranked 94th in RPI rankings and USC’s strength of schedule sits at 262.
I expect both key rankings to improve as the season continues, especially with conference play in a few weeks, but still interesting to look at compared to the other SEC schools.
