Five top storylines for Saturday’s USC-Coastal Carolina game

Five storylines for South Carolina’s game at noon Saturday against Coastal Carolina at Williams-Brice Stadium (SEC Network):

Who will start at running back?

Coach Will Muschamp says the coaching staff has “a pretty good idea” of how the running back rotation will go Saturday, but he hasn’t shared that publicly. Juniors Rico Dowdle, Ty’Son Williams, A.J. Turner and Mon Denson were all listed with “OR” on the first depth chart of the season. Running backs coach Bobby Bentley said earlier in the preseason that Dowdle and Williams had separated themselves, so it’s likely that one of those two will start, but how South Carolina splits the carries will be interesting Saturday and the rest of the season.
