South Carolina (4-3, 3-3 SEC) takes on Ole Miss (5-3, 1-3 SEC) on Saturday at noon in Vaught-Hemingway Stadium in Oxford, Miss. Here are five burning questions for the Gamecocks headed into that game:
Can South Carolina run the ball well again?
The Gamecocks are coming off a 224-yard rushing performance against Tennessee, and the Ole Miss run defense is terrible. South Carolina is 17-3 under head coach Will Muschamp when it rushes for more than 100 yards in a game so it makes sense to lean on the run game again, but the Gamecocks weren’t willing to publicly commit to that strategy this week.
