COLUMBIA, Mo. - We’ve covered the Missouri-South Carolina series history. We all know Kelly Bryant gets to face his old in-state rival. It’s one former Nick Saban assistant (Will Muschamp) versus another (Derek Dooley). We even know the uniform combinations: White jerseys, black pants for the Gamecocks; black jerseys, gold pants for the Tigers.
Now it’s time to dive into the matchups. The Tigers are 9-point favorites but will need some things to go their way to snap a three-game losing streak to South Carolina. We’re talking beyond the unpredictable, like turnovers, injuries and weather complications.
