Prices for the Belk College Kickoff Game are going down, and South Carolina athletics director Ray Tanner hopes that means attendance will go up.
The last time the Gamecocks played in the game, in 2015 in what would be Steve Spurrier’s final season as coach, there were approximately 20,000 empty seats at Bank of America Stadium as South Carolina beat North Carolina 17-13. The Gamecocks will return to Bank of America to start the 2017 season, playing N.C. State on Sept. 2. The time for the game is expected to be announced later this month.
Fans won’t have to pay quite as much to see this one in person.
