South Carolina unveils uniform combination for Florida game
As South Carolina football goes for another top-10 upset this Saturday against No. 9 Florida at Williams-Brice Stadium, the Gamecocks will sport white pants and helmets with black jerseys.
The video released Thursday took advantage of the South Carolina State Fair, with the bright lights of the fair and a reference to the movie “IT.”
The last time USC wore this combo was against Vanderbilt in 2017.
It’s the second home game this season in which USC will not wear the “Black Magic” throwback combination.
Last season, the Gamecocks let a 17-point lead slip away in Gainesville, missing a chance for the most impressive win of the season. A banged-up defense ran out of gas as the Gators went on to a 10-win season. USC has lost three of the past four in the series and five of the past nine.
Gamecocks coach Will Muschamp got his first head coaching opportunity at Florida.
Kickoff is set for noon on ESPN. USC is a 6-point underdog and is attempting to upset another top-10 opponent after beating No. 3 UGA last week. The Gators are 6-1 and coming off their first loss, a shootout with No. 2 LSU. The Gamecocks are 3-3 and hoping freshman QB Ryan Hilinski can play after suffering a knee injury.
