South Carolina basketball releases full 2024-2025 season men's schedule

Over the past several weeks, the South Carolina basketball schedule has been finalized.

As head coach Lamont Paris has pieced together the final non-conference games, and the Southeastern Conference has finished establishing dates for the previously announced conference matchups, the Gamecocks' entire 31-game regular season schedule slowly has been revealed.

The Gamecocks' 2024-2025 slate includes 10 teams currently ranked in ESPN's preseason top-25 (11 games) and one more against a team included in the poll's "next in line" section. Similarly, there are 10 teams (and 12 games) against teams that made the 2023-2024 NCAA Tournament field.
