On the anniversary of last year's historic flood, just last week I praised the University of South Carolina Athletics Department for their handling of the South Carolina vs. LSU football game.
Week 5 Record: (7-1)
As Hurricane Matthew began to threaten the state of South Carolina, Gamecock fans everywhere were reminded of last year’s football game against LSU, where the “home” game was played in Baton Rouge. With a home matchup against rival Georgia scheduled for the date when rain could flood the Midlands in addition to the Lowcountry, many started to assume South Carolina would surrender another home game to a different location.
There is currently no change to South Carolina’s football game versus Georgia, which is scheduled to take place Saturday at 7:30 pm at Williams-Brice Stadium. An announcement from the university is expected Thursday morning regarding the time and date of the football game, though the location of the game is not in question.
Coming off a loss to Texas A&M that was closer than the score showed, South Carolina plans to take on Georgia Saturday, who dropped out of the Top 25 after a heartbreaking last-second Hail Mary loss to Tennessee.
Ahead of Saturday's matchup between South Carolina and Georgia, managing editor Adam Orfinger got in touch with Red & Black's sports editor John Durham to analyze the game from the Bulldogs' perspective.
South Carolina coach Will Muschamp didn't explicitly mention any plans to redshirt freshman quarterback Jake Bentley when asked about the scenario during his mid-week conference, but in all likelihood that is the path the coaching staff will take with the former four-star recruit.
After a frustrating loss to No. 9 Texas A&M that saw only one Gamecock touchdown, considering making a change at quarterback is a reasonable response. Nevertheless, Perry Orth should not take Brandon McIlwain’s place as starting quarterback.
With the South Carolina football team sitting at 2-3 and losing two of those games in a row, something needs to change. And for coach Will Muschamp and this Gamecock team, that something is the true freshman quarterback that continues to start despite continued lackluster performance.
When SEC football schedules were released last fall, everyone in Columbia and Athens, Georgia, circled one date on the calendar: Oct. 8.
After leaving Lexington, Kentucky, many fans had thrown in the towel on the 2016 version of South Carolina football. It was evident that reaching a bowl game was unlikely.
The quarterback controversy for South Carolina still is not quelled and the special team’s issues remain unresolved, but with the many questions that continue to persist surrounding the play of Coach Will Muschamp’s team, the versatility and importance of sophomore tight end Hayden Hurst only continue to become clearer and more apparent with each game.
Senior quarterback Perry Orth returned to game action in the fourth quarter of South Carolina's 24-13 loss to Texas A&M to rejuvenate the Gamecocks' passing game.
South Carolina starting quarterback Brandon McIlwain completed just 34 yards against one of the most well-rounded teams in the country in No. 9 Texas A&M. Normally that would be a recipe for disaster, but South Carolina overcame limitations in their passing game in a respectable 24-13 loss to the Aggies.
The decision to move South Carolina's home game against LSU to Baton Rouge, Louisiana following the historic flood that hit Columbia was not taken lightly.
Week 4 record: 6-3

Get ready for basketball season, Gamecock fans, because after a 17-10 loss to the Kentucky Wildcats, Will Muschamp and this South Carolina football team likely won’t be headed to a postseason bowl game.
South Carolina's schedule was set up fairly well for Will Muschamp's team to start the season on a strong note before really getting into the gauntlet of October and November. Unfortunately for the Gamecock faithful, South Carolina squandered opportunities for key SEC victories against Mississippi State, making the likelihood of a bowl bid incredibly low.
In the team's first four games, South Carolina has split their season against four respectable, but significantly flawed opponents. Hosting 4-0 Texas A&M on Saturday, the Gamecocks will face their first test against a truly complete team, with the Aggies boasting a multidimensional, high-powered offense paired with a physical and disciplined defense.
