South Carolina football hits the road to Athens on Saturday to open SEC play against the Georgia Bulldogs. GamecockCentral.com\u2019s staff is back with more predictions of what will take place on the field on Saturday afternoon.<\/p>\n
CHRIS CLARK:<\/strong> I have Marcellas Dial having a nice day in pass coverage and grabbing an interception off of UGA starting quarterback Carson Beck. While I have UGA winning and putting up some points, I believe Dial\u2019s had a good start to the season and will make a big play for the Gamecocks.<\/p>\n WES MITCHELL:<\/strong> Juice Wells breaks out. South Carolina fans have been waiting for last year\u2019s leading receiver to break out as he\u2019s had limited snaps and limited targets in the last two weeks while he\u2019s still returning to full-go from an offseason\u00a0injury. It\u2019s only a matter of time until Wells starts making plays like he did last year, in my opinion, and this week is as good as any, especially with the Georgia defense likely focused on Xavier Legette, the Gamecocks\u2019 best receiver through two games. <\/p>\n If not Wells, then Carolina will likely need another receiver to step up and make some plays, which could be Ahmarean Brown (if healthy) or Eddie Lewis. But for the purposes\u00a0of the prediction let\u2019s go with Wells having a big day in Athens.<\/p>\n [Win a framed print of The Taunt\/D.J. Swearinger from Vista Art]<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n KENDALL SMITH:<\/strong> Shane Beamer will need to pull out all the stops in this one, and I think he will. I\u2019m calling a score from special teams- Beamer Ball baby!\u00a0<\/p>\n COLLYN TAYLOR: <\/strong>Trovon Baugh and Tree Babalade will take the most snaps Saturday at right guard and left tackle, respectively. That doesn\u2019t mean either will start\u2013especially in that kind of environment\u2013but the way Dowell Loggains spoke this week both seem like they\u2019re going to play. Will they start? There\u2019s a possibility, but I think both guys log a good amount of snaps as South Carolina football tries to figure out what it has and find its best five up front.\u00a0<\/p>\n [Get news from GamecockCentral via email]<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n MIKE UVA:<\/strong> In order for South Carolina to pull off the upset of Georgia, they\u2019re gonna need everybody. And yes, that includes Juice Wells. While it\u2019s hard to know for sure how many snaps Wells will get this weekend, if there were ever a time for him to show the world that he\u2019s back, it would be on CBS against No.1 ranked Georgia. It will take the OL giving Spencer Rattler time to make plays but lookout for Wells to have a massive game and surprise 100 yards receiving.\u00a0<\/p>\n The post Five predictions: South Carolina football vs. Georgia<\/a> appeared first on On3<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" South Carolina football hits the road to Athens on Saturday to open SEC play against…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-16823","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16823","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16823"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16823\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16823"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16823"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16823"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Discuss South Carolina football on The Insiders Forum!<\/strong><\/a><\/h2>\n
