Get South Carolina vs Auburn predictions for college basketball Thursday.
Auburn will square off with the favored South Carolina in women's college basketball action at Neville Arena on Thursday, beginning at 9:00 PM ET.
The championship matchup pairs two 14–3 teams coming off sharply contrasting conference title games, with New England advancing through a low-scoring, snow-filled AFC Championship win over Denver and Seattle earning its place after a 31–27 NFC Championship thriller against the Rams.
The clash also spotlights two offensive focal points, with Drake Maye guiding New England through a composed, run-focused AFC title performance and Jaxon Smith-Njigba entering as Seattle’s primary playmaker following a 153-yard, one-touchdown outing in the NFC Championship.
Based on the latest simulations, Dimers' new women's basketball model predicts South Carolina as the most likely winner of the South Carolina vs. Auburn game.
