Southern Miss at South Carolina
The last few years South Carolina has opened the college football season on ESPN, and this year is no different. Spurrier loves opening on Thursday because it gives him two extra days to prepare for his annual early SEC showdown with Georgia.
South Carolina Key
Spurrier has been open about his displeasure with Stephen Garcia’s performance and leadership capabilites. Spurrier has even gone as far as to open up the QB competition and has given true freshman Connor Shaw plenty of reps in practice. Spurrier says Garcia will start. but Shaw will see action very early. The key for South Carolina and really the entire season, is for Garcia to step up and perform. He must make good decisions with the football and inspire confidence. If Shaw is forced out early and often, tonight’s game will be closer than expected. And it will also be another ho hum medicore season in Columbia.
Southern Miss Key
South Carolina’s defensive strength is in its secondary, however the Golden Eagles have one of the most electric WRs in America in DeAndre Brown. QB Austin Davis has proven he can make plays with his arm as he completed nearly 70% of his throws last season. Davis must be smart. Don’t challenge Gamecocks corners Stephon Gillmore and Chris Culliver. Get the ball to Brown in space and let him make plays.
Pittsburgh at UtahUtah Key
Utah has some big losses on defense especially at LB and the secondary. Can this inexperienced LB group shut down Pitt RB Dion Lewis? Utah has some talent on the D-line so they will need to get some penetration against a Pitt offensive line that has some major question marks. The Utes will be jacked, and they have won three straight home openers against BCS teams.
Pittsburgh key
It’s time for Pittsburgh to live up to their potential. There is no reason Pitt should not compete for the Big East title this year. They have been major underachievers under Dave Wannstedt. They have one of the nation’s best RBs in Dion Lewis and one of the best DEs in Greg Romesus. This will be a challenging opener on the road. But, I believe Pitt has the better team! They key though is will Dave Wanntstedt have them ready and prepared? I have my questions.
