South Carolina is not used to losing but they've already dropped two games and fallen in the rankings. How will they respond to adversity?

After Paige Bueckers and Azzi Fudd came out of the game, they sat on the bench, towels draped around their shoulders, with wide smiles.

South Carolina dropped to No. 6 in this week’s AP Top 25 Poll. The Gamecocks’ slide in the rankings comes after they split this past week’s game: an impressive 101-63 win over Florida and an equally embarrassing 87-58 loss to UConn. No. 6 is the lowest South Carolina has ranked in the AP Poll this season.
