Around this time last week South Carolina fans were riding as high as they’ve been in probably three years. But a 23-13 loss to Kentucky dropped those feelings right out of a sky like an unsuspecting mallard during duck season.
Now scarred and hurt once again, fans will come back to Williams Brice to see their Gamecocks pitted against Louisiana Tech — a team they haven’t played since 1995.
Normally a game against a G-5 team is the perfect palate cleanser after a stinky loss like the one South Carolina took last week. But this is not your normal G-5 team.
