*10* SURE SHOT on Missouri.

The Missouri Tigers were one of the bottom feeders of the SEC last year, and they aren't looking much better this season. They come in to South Carolina on Saturday as an enormous underdog though, and I think the Gamecocks are asked to cover a few too many points in this one.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Previous History - The Gamecocks won both meetings last year, but both of those wins came at home by a single-digit margin. Prior to that the Tigers had won three straight in the series, including an upset win at South Carolina. The Gamecocks were crushed on the road at Alabama in their last game, and their last two home wins came by a single-digit margin, beating Vanderbilt by four points, and Memphis by 10.

2. Shooting Slump - South Carolina shot just 19-of-53 from the field, and 3-of-18 from three point range on Wednesday, losing 73-50 to Alabama. The Gamecocks were just 3-of-13 from beyond the arc in their home win over Vanderbilt.

3. X-Factor - The road team is 4-1 ATS in the last 5 meetings.

Selection: This is a play on the Missouri Tigers (10*)
