With non-conference play completely behind it, Arkansas (15-4, 3-3 SEC) returns to SEC action for the rest of the regular season, beginning with a home matchup against South Carolina (11-8, 3-3).

Before the 7:30 p.m. CT tip Wednesday, which will be televised on the SEC Network, HawgBeat thought it'd be a good idea to give a scouting report of sorts on the Gamecocks.

Below is a look at their starting lineup, bench players and where they're ranked in key metrics and statistics...
