This weekend marks the 35th meeting between the two teams in a series that began in 1937. South Carolina leads Kentucky in the all-time series, 19-14-1. The Gamecocks won the last meeting between the two teams.

The formula for beating South Carolina this season has been to hold the Gamecocks to 20 points or fewer. In five of South Carolina’s six losses, the Gamecocks have scored 20 or less. 

The South Carolina offense is directed by quarterback Spencer Rattler, who is having a big season for the Gamecocks. Rattler has passed for 2,867 yards and 17 touchdowns this season and is completing 70.6 percent of his passes. 

Game time is 6:30 p.m.
