The South Carolina Gamecocks return home for a two-game stretch against in-state competition to close their season. The Gamecocks face the Coastal Carolina Chanticleers at 4:15 p.m. ET on the SEC Network. South Carolina then closes its season against rival Clemson in the Palmetto Bowl at noon on November 29.

After falling to No. 3 Texas A&M, 31-30, in historic fashion, the Gamecocks officially put themselves out of bowl game contention, falling to 3-7.

The Chanticleers also enter Saturday evening’s contest off a loss, falling 45-40 on the road against Georgia Southern. However, unlike South Carolina, Coastal Carolina has already clinched a bowl game, sitting at a 6-4 record.
