It’s officially game week for South Carolina football, who begins its season this Saturday with an opener versus the Eastern Illinois Panthers. The Panthers kicked their season off last weekend, falling 26-21 against Indiana State. The loss was EIU’s 18th in their last 20 matchups. The Gamecocks should be able to continue that trend for the Panthers and start the Shane Beamer era off with a convincing win.
