No. 18 South Carolina takes a 6-game winning streak into Tuscaloosa to take on No. 16 Alabama in the 1st of a 3-game SEC series on Thursday,
No. 18 South Carolina (20-5) has won six straight games, including four straight in the Southeastern Conference, and is 4-2 as it hits the road this weekend for a three-game series at No. 16 Alabama (19-6). The Crimson Tide is 2-4 in the SEC after being swept at Georgia last weekend. The Gamecocks returned to the NCAA tournament last season after a one-year absence and advanced to the super-regionals, with Alabama following the same path under interim coach Jason Jackson after coach Brad Bohannon was fired and received a 15-year show-cause penalty in the wake of a gambling scandal. South Carolina comes into the series after sweeping then-No. 3 Vanderbilt last weekend.
