Game Day: Gamecocks At Kentucky

COLUMBIA, S.C. (WOLO) — Game day is here and the Gamecocks get one last tune-up before a brutal October that includes a home game at Georgia next week, with trips to LSU and Florida to follow. Steve Spurrier says his team will not be overlooking its game against Kentucky tonight at 7 p.m. on ESPN2. “We’re going to be ready for Kentucky,” Spurrier said at his weekly press conference Tuesday. “We know that upsets happen, and we know we they happen, usually when a team is not ready to play, simple as that.” Spurrier’s main message Tuesday: #6 South Carolina has yet to play a team with a winning record. “We’ve beaten the teams we’re supposed to beat, and we know the meat of the schedule is down the road.” After this Saturday’s trip to Kentucky the Gamecocks arguably play the toughest October schedule in the country. USC plays #5 Georgia October 6th, at #3 LSU October 13th, at #11 Florida October 20th and Tennessee October 27th.
