South Carolina has had nearly a full week off after having both the Sunday series finale against Michigan State and Tuesday’s game against Furman canceled due to cold weather. The 11-5 Gamecocks will finally get back on the field on Friday as they begin SEC play against Tennessee at Lindsey Nelson Stadium in Knoxville. The Gamecocks have won nine of the last ten series against the Vols, with the lone series loss in that stretch coming in 2015 in their last trip to Knoxville.
The Vols are 12-2, with their only losses coming to Memphis and Cincinnati. The Vols won their last three games and are coming off of an 18-4 blowout of Austin Peay on Wednesday.
