Opening Line at SBG: Tennessee -3 , Total 52.5
Current Line at SBG: Tennessee -2.5 , Total 52.5
South Carolina and Tennessee will both be looking to bounce back from losses last week as they meet in Knoxville on Saturday night. The Gamecocks had only 195 yards in a 17-6 loss to Vanderbilt while Tennessee is coming off a disaster against Alabama where they were routed 41-17. SBG Global reports that early betting has the public taking Tennessee at Home.
South Carolina's offense has been held to two field goals in the past six quarters and is near the bottom of the entire college football rankings in offense. "Jumping offside, dropping the ball here and there. We couldn't hit guys that were open," Spurrier said. "It was embarrassing for our offense, and I coach the offense. So shoot, I've apologized every year for a bad play and probably ought to again." South Carolina has no idea who their starting quarterback will be. Starting quarterback Chris Smelley threw two interceptions last week, and Blake Mitchell threw one. Third-stringer Tommy Beecher is also in the mix this week.
Tennessee is 20-3-2 all-time against South Carolina although Steve Spurrier has done well in his career against Tennessee going 10-6 with three teams, Duke, Florida and South Carolina. "Both of us are in the mix for the Eastern Division championship, so you have a game that is crucial, both schools coming off tough losses," Tennessee head coach Phil Fulmer said, "We want to get back on the right track."
