JSU's Road to the NCAA

The Gamecocks' mens basketball team is in a 3 way tie for 6th and only 1 game ahead of the ninth place team in the OVC. Two home conference games remain on the schedule. One is against UT Martin who is in last place in the league. The other is against SEMO which is an upper division OVC team. A sweep of the two games would likely secure the Gamecocks a spot in the OVC bracket on the opposite side of Murray State.
