South Carolina now has its full 2020 football schedule set

South Carolina’s new football schedule for the 2020 season is locked in.

The SEC announced the league’s Week 1 schedule Monday afternoon, and then revealed the rest of the schedule on an SEC Network special in the evening.

The Gamecocks’ 2020 football schedule

Week 1, Sept. 26: home vs. Tennessee

Week 2, Oct. 3: at Florida

Week 3, Oct. 10: at Vanderbilt

Week 4, Oct. 17: home vs. Auburn

Week 5, Oct. 24: at LSU

The two new teams added to the Gamecocks’ slate as part of alterations because of the coronavirus pandemic were Ole Miss and Auburn. The Gamecocks were already slated to face LSU as their rotating SEC West rival, along with locked-in crossover opponent Texas A&M.

The Gamecocks had been projected to face one of the toughest schedules in the country, though that technically got a little easier with Clemson taken off the slate.

South Carolina started full preseason camp on Tuesday.
