The coach got fired, players are opting out, but the Gamecocks still have a primetime matchup this Saturday night against the Missouri Tigers.
Those four straight wins against the spread to begin the year feel like ages ago as South Carolina has dropped their last three, being a mediocre 4-3 on the year. Subtract two wins and that’s their record straight up.
Missouri’s last game was Halloween night, so come Saturday, they wouldn’t have played in three weeks. Add the fact that they’ve been wildly inconsistent, beating LSU and Kentucky yet getting blown out by the rest, and you’ll get a team that no one’s really sure what they’re capable of.
