The Gamecocks’ six sacks are tied for 23rd in the country, which is impressive but the potential is there to add greatly to that number Saturday. South Carolina had five sacks in their opener but just one against East Carolina last week, thanks to the Pirates’ quick-passing game. UAB runs a much different system. The Blazers will try to throw the ball down the field. UAB coach Garrick McGee was Arkansas’ offensive coordinator the last two years, and the Razorbacks have had plenty of success throwing the ball against South Carolina in years past. However, UAB’s offensive line doesn’t figure to be able to block Jadeveon Clowney and Devin Taylor long enough to make that kind of offense work.
