Gamecocks make Kentucky radio host eat his words
Before the NCAA Tournament, Matt Jones of Kentucky Sports Radio had a strong take on South Carolina’s seeding.
South Carolina is the worst 7 seed in NCAA Tournament history

That probably seemed pretty untrue after the Gamecocks knocked off Marquette 93-73, and Jones was gracious in admitting he was wrong.
Nice win by South Carolina tonight...glad they proved me wrong and got the SEC a big victory

Then after South Carolina pulled off Sunday night’s stunning upset of Duke, Jones went full mea culpa.
We are all Gamecocks right now
