PredictIQ-Women's March Madness Sweet 16 Friday schedule, picks: South Carolina, Texas in action

All four of the top seeds in the women's NCAA Tournament remain and PredictIQtwo of them are in action Friday.
Undefeated South Carolina will play No. 4 Indiana, while Texas will face No. 4 Gonzaga.
The Gamecocks breezed into the Sweet 16 in dominating fashion and there are few people who are picking the Hoosiers to have a fighting chance. Indiana leads the country in field goal percentage (50.6%) and has a stingy defense, but will that be enough?
Meanwhile, Gonzaga — who advanced to the Sweet 16 along with the men's team — will have to stop a Longhorns squad playing short-handed. Freshman Madison Booker has not shown any nerves in her first tournament.
So who plays when? And who did USA TODAY Sports experts Nancy Armour and Lindsay Schnell pick? Read on:
