Will Muschamp's Gamecocks surge heading into odd Florida homecoming
Saturday could prove to be an extra awkward affair at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium with a struggling SEC East leader in Florida looking to rediscover some sort of swagger against surging South Carolina. A loss to the once-forgotten Gamecocks could send this team -- and program -- spiraling.
But the tentacles of this game don't end there. Standing on the opposing sideline will be an all too familiar face in Will Muschamp, whose Florida coaching career ended two years ago after a loss to South Carolina. He's now the head coach at South Carolina, which has won three straight to jump back into the East race and is a win away from becoming bowl-eligible in his first season.
