No. 21 South Carolina (5-2, 3-2) at No. 5 Missouri (7-0, 3-0)
Saturday, 7 PM EST, ESPN 2
Line: not set (awaiting status of Connor Shaw)
Seven games into the 2013 season, the Missouri Tigers find themselves in an unfamiliar place at the top of the SEC East. In just their second year in the SEC, the Tigers have used a bit of luck (catching Florida and Georgia at opportune times) and much improved play on both sides of the football to grab a lead that will be hard for the rest of the division to overcome.
South Carolina comes into this game stinging after losing a game at Tennessee that they should have won. The Gamecocks are also awaiting the status of their QB Connor Shaw. Shaw severely sprained his knee in the loss to the Vols and is doubtful for the game on Saturday. In terms of the SEC standings, the Gamecocks have the best chance at catching the Tigers as the Tigers have a two game lead and the tiebreaker over both Florida and Georgia.
