The last time South Carolina was in Kentucky was the night Shane Beamer was hired. The Gamecocks will likely be going against the Wildcats’ backup quarterback with Will Levis banged up.
He’s a game-time decision but ESPN’s Pete Thamel reported on College Game Day that Kentucky was preparing for Kaiya Sheron to start.
