The Gamecock front will be tested to slow down Todd Gurley and the Bulldog rushing game. “We’re going to do our best,” said Adams. “We’re going against four really great running backs that could probably start for any team in this conference. It’s going to be a challenge for us to contain them but we’re going to do our best. Our guys are going to be in position to make plays. We’ve just got to make them when we’re there. (Gurley) is an aggressive runner,” noted Adams. “He runs very hard and he runs very physical. We’ve got to get him on the ground. We’ve got to tackle him and get him on the ground.”
