What channel is South Carolina vs. Missouri on today? Time, TV schedule for Gamecocks-Tigers

The South Carolina women’s basketball team has one final hurdle to clear before its highly anticipated matchup Sunday against No. 9 UConn.

On Thursday night, the No. 1 Gamecocks will face off against Missouri at Colonial Life Arena in Columbia.

Coach Dawn Staley’s team remains the nation’s lone undefeated squad, with a 21-0 record and 9-0 mark in SEC play after it won its past three games by an average of 22.7 points. It will be South Carolina’s second meeting this season against the Tigers. The Gamecocks won the first matchup 81-57 on Jan. 11 in Columbia, Missouri, with junior guard Bree Hall leading the way in that victory with a career-high 21 points. She also made eight of her 10 shots and all four of her 3-point attempts.

South Carolina will be without leading scorer and rebounder Kamilla Cardoso for Thursday’s game. Cardoso, who averages 13.8 points and 9.8 rebounds per game, is competing with the Brazilian national team at the Olympic Qualifying Tournaments this week. She is one of three current or former Gamecocks doing so, as Aliyah Boston is playing for the United States and Laeticia Amihere is playing for Canada.

Missouri is 11-11 overall this season, which includes a 2-7 record in SEC play. The Tigers have lost four games in a row and seven of their past nine.
