After the initial bowl line was posted, money comes in heavy on Gamecocks side

The South Carolina football team opened on Sunday as a modest 3 1/2 point favorite against Virginia in the Belk Bowl.

That changed quickly.

Within two hours, the line was bet up from 3 1/2 to 6 according to the VegasInsider line tracker. If it holds, it would be the second-most USC has been favored by against an SEC opponent (the highest was 10 against Tennessee and the Gamecocks won by three).

South Carolina was a touchdown underdog against Michigan last season, and pulled off the Outback Bowl upset. USC has won four of its past five bowl game.
