The Wolfpack (1-1) are going to need to bounce back after this loss as this is just something that showed there is a difference between these programs right now. The Gamecocks (2-0) showed that they can dominate against elite competition and did not have forward Chloe Fitts on the court in this game.
Let’s take a deeper dive into the box score and discuss what happened.

NC State vs. South Carolina Game Summary
The NC State Wolfpack were able to shoot the basketball well as they had a 41.5/40.0/70.0 shooting split during the game. They were just overwhelmed grabbing rebounds as they were outrebounded 40-25. There is not much difference in the stats but they were just unable to keep up.
The South Carolina Gamecocks dominated this game and looked like an extension of last season. The team shot 50.0% from the floor but only attempted six free throws in the game. They cleaned the glass well and had an 11-3 offensive rebounding advantage in this matchup. The main difference though was in the paint as South Carolina had 50 points inside the paint compared to NC State’s 30.
