South Carolina takes its turn trying to topple top-ranked Georgia today at noon.

The Gamecocks take on Georgia in the first slate of games Saturday looking to upset the No. 1 team in the country.

GamecockCentral is all hands on deck for the matchup with live updates up and rolling on The Insiders Forum.

South Carolina announced Thursday afternoon Saturday’s game is expected to be a sellout.

“I know there are a lot of people who wanted this to be a night game. Frankly, no one cares. It’s a noon game. So we set the standard for what Williams-Brice Stadium should be like against Georgia State,” Beamer said.

“We’re not all of a sudden going to be less than that on Saturday at noon because we’re disappointed it’s not a night game. We have a great opportunity for our fan base to show the entire country on national television what Williams-Brice Stadium and a game day at South Carolina is like.”

The Gamecocks will have a massive recruiting weekend headlined by five-star prospect Nyckoles Harbor and include some high-level in-state talent in the 2024 class as well.

“If you follow recruiting at all at Carolina you know how important this recruit this weekend is from a recruiting standpoint and the fantastic young men we’re going to have on campus,” Beamer said.

“We have to do our part as a football team, coaches and players. We’re working really, really hard to do that. But we need our fan base to do their part as well on Saturday. Knowing what I know about Gamecock nation I have no doubt we will.”

The Gamecocks haven’t beaten Georgia since the epic 2019 upset in Athens. The last South Carolina win at home came in 2014, a 38-35 win.

South Carolina’s last upset over a No. 1 team came 12 years ago against Alabama at Williams-Brice Stadium.

Kickoff Saturday is scheduled for noon on ESPN. Todd Blackledge, Sean McDonough and Molly McGrath will be on the call.
