The South Carolina football arrived in Tampa, Fla., on Tuesday with most of its injured players expected to be available for next week’s Outback Bowl matchup against Michigan.
Running back Rico Dowdle “is a little slow, but I think he’s going to be OK,” head coach Will Muschamp said Tuesday as the Gamecocks arrived at the team hotel in Tampa. “Rico is the only one I thought might be a little questionable.”
Dowdle fractured a bone in his leg in the October win over Tennessee. Muschamp declared tailback A.J. Turner, linebacker Sherrod Greene and wide receiver Shi Smith all ready for the game.
