Will Muschamp: This is ‘the No. 1’ reason for South Carolina struggles

South Carolina exceeded expectations on the football team last year in large part because it finished second in the SEC in turnover margin. The Gamecocks of 2018 are on a disappointing pace because of the same statistical category.

“I certainly think that is point No. 1 as far as why we are where we are,” head coach Will Muschamp said. “We are nowhere near where we need to be.”

South Carolina (3-3 overall, 2-3 SEC) is last in the SEC in turnover margin this year, at minus-.83 per game. For the season, the Gamecocks have turned the ball over five more times than they have taken it away from opponents.
