This game has me extremely worried. I'm usually confident, but with the suspension of Swearinger, and Shaw's injury, plus the uncertainty at the QB position, I can see this game being a potential upset. Missouri is a very underrated opponent, and many are getting the wrong impression of them because of the score vs UGA. They led in the 2nd half, and were within a TD late before UGA added 2 more to make the game seem lopsided, which it wasn't. They're a very explosive team, and they are very battle tested if you look at their scores last season. Their worst loss last season was 45-24 to OK State, a team that blew out OU and barely missed the title game. Other than that, they lost to RG3 by 3, #1 OU at the time by 10, ASU in OT, and KState by a touchdown. They ended the year hot winning 4 in a row, including a win over Texas and they dominated their bowl. Maybe I'm overlooking things, but they just seem like the kind of team that will push us all game no matter what, and will have us sweating in the 4th Q. Please give me words of encouragement, and feel free to add a prediction. Right now I will say, South Carolina 23 Missouri 20.

Pretty sound logic there. But you are overlooking our gamecocks. We have one of the best defenses in all of college football. Our offense an win a game regardless of method of attack. Yes we have played warm up games the last two weeks like most other programs but it's refreshing to me that we finally win those games like we should instead of playing to the competition. I agree mizzou will come in fired up but I think they leave flamed out. I like the gamecocks to cover but barely. 28 17 good guys.
