The South Carolina Gamecocks will face off against Lane Kiffin’s No. 12 Ole Miss Rebels at home in Williams-Brice Stadium.

It’s a big game for both teams, with South Carolina hoping to pull off an underdog victory to have a strong conference season, and Ole Miss needing a win to bounce back from their recent loss to Kentucky. Also, if you’ve been following college football closely, you might have noticed that South Carolina’s defense is pretty similar to Kentucky’s. So, could this mean that Ole Miss is headed for another loss? That’s what makes this game so exciting – fans are eager to see how it unfolds. But before we dive into predictions, let’s talk about where and how to watch the game.

Either way, you’ve got plenty of ways to stay in the loop and watch the action unfold.

Now, let’s dive a little deeper into this matchup between Ole Miss and South Carolina.

What’s the deal with South Carolina vs Ole Miss?

The Rebels come into the game with a 4-1 record, while the Gamecocks stand at 3-1. Ole Miss started strong this season, scoring over 40 points in each of their first four non-conference games. But in their recent game against SEC rival Kentucky, the Rebels were held to just 353 yards and only 14 first downs in a tough 20-17 loss. South Carolina, on the other hand, managed to beat Kentucky 31-6 back in Week 2, giving them a bit of an edge in comparison.

As we mentioned earlier, South Carolina’s defense is similar to Kentucky’s, so there’s a real possibility that they could give Ole Miss a hard time on Saturday. But here’s the catch: the Gamecocks’ offense is facing some challenges. Both running back Rocket Sanders and quarterback LaNorris Sellers are listed as questionable for the game due to injuries. This could be a huge factor in whether South Carolina can pull off the upset.

So, grab your favorite snack, get your streaming service sorted, and settle in for an action-packed Saturday of college football. This game between Ole Miss and South Carolina promises to be a thrilling part of Week 6, and you won’t want to miss it!
