Dawn Staley backed up the luck of the coin flip this week in South Carolina.

Both South Carolina and Texas had been likely one-seeds ahead of this game. But Texas, which had held the No. 1 overall seed coming into tournament play, will likely lose that spot.

While South Carolina reasserted itself as the gold standard in the SEC on Sunday, Texas was forced to settle for silver in its conference debut.

The South Carolina Gamecocks have a chance to avenge their loss earlier in the season vs Texas and win a conference title in the meantime Sunday afternoon.
