A different spin…from NBC Sports….
South Carolina at Clemson
There’s no truth to the rumor that there will be a special guest giving the pregame speech in the Tiger locker room, even though Tommy Bowden excelled at beating the Gamecocks, going 7-2 during his time at Clemson. It’s Dabo Swinney’s show at the moment and if he can come through in his first crack at the archrivals, it might not be his last.
South Carolina, however, ranks second only to the other “USC” in pass defense, allowing just 156.7 yards per game through the air. That’s not good news for Tiger quarterback Cullen Harper . . . and neither is the fact that his offensive line remains a weak link and won’t be able to handle the Gamecocks’ rugged front four well enough to qualify Clemson for a bowl game.
South Carolina 20-17
