South Carolina Opponent Preview 2016: What do we know about Western Carolina?

The Western Carolina Catamounts travel to Columbia, SC on November 19th. This marks the fifth time that the South Carolina Gamecocks have hosted the feisty program from Cullowhee, with the previous four coming in consecutive seasons between 1986-1989. This also marks the week that the Gamecocks face an FCS opponent at home in the penultimate game of the season before a potentially earth-shattering matchup against that old pain in our ass, a team that just so happens to be the prohibitive favorite to play for a National Championship this season.

People that have not shoved an ice pick into their craniums in the last twelve months will recall that this particular game on last year’s schedule didn’t pan out so well.
