There are several glaring issues with South Carolina’s football team – an inconsistent offense, a porous run defense and a shaken secondary come to mind quickly – but effort and motivation have never been in that category, Gamecocks head coach Will Muschamp insists.
Those two things ought to be good enough Saturday to beat a bad Tennessee football team. South Carolina is 3-3 overall and 2-3 in the SEC. The Vols are 3-4 overall and 1-3 in the SEC with that lone conference win coming against a reeling Auburn team.
“There’s not been one moment that I’ve wondered about the motivation of this football team, there really hasn’t to be honest with you,” Muschamp said.
