The Gamecocks advance to their first-ever championship game after surviving a dreadful second quarter, as South Carolina missed seven consecutive shots and watched a two-point lead turn into a 29-20 deficit by halftime.

By knocking off four-time defending national champion Connecticut, Mississippi State probably caused ESPN to scrap a lot of prepared footage in prelude to the Huskies playing in the national championship game on Sunday. But South Carolina was ready for a run of its own after halftime, turning up the tempo on offense as the Gamecocks tried to outrun a Stanford team that wanted to be patient.
