The No. 1 Gamecocks (36-0) will battle NC State for a spot in the national championship. The game will tip off at 7 pm ET on Friday at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse in Cleveland and will air on ESPN.
The No. 3 seed Wolfpack (32-6) defeated No. 1 Texas 76-66 in the Elite Eight, following a Sweet 16 victory over No. 2 Stanford. It is only the second time in program history that NC State has made the Final Four. It reached the semi-finals in 1998.
South Carolina will play in the Final Four for the fourth straight season after beating No. 3 Oregon State 70-58. It is the sixth time a Dawn Staley-coached Gamecocks team has reached the Final Four.
