The past two seasons, the pace of South Carolina’s games with Georgia have played out as an underdog would want.
The games were low-scoring and relatively tight, meaning a team needs fewer breaks to sneak out a win. That formula has been kind to USC the past two years overall, but against the Bulldogs, the breaks never came.
So the question now is, will the Gamecocks try to strike quickly with a big swing, or hope a more patient, lower-scoring affair favors them?
There’s been talk about the new higher-tempo attack, and that fits into all this.
