South Carolina has scored 69 points in three games, and 28 of them have come courtesy of their defense or special teams units. Whether or not LaNorris Sellers plays, it's an offense that's struggled mightily. The same cannot be said of Mizzou, which is off to an electrifying start.
It now sounds as if South Carolina QB LaNorris Sellers will be able to play Saturday despite being in the concussion protocol as he was at practice on Thursday. Reports are barring a setback, he will go. Sellers and that Gamecocks offense have disappointed, but I think they can get to at least 17 against Missouri. The only power opponent that the Tigers have faced was Kansas, and they allowed 31 points. Last year, USC scored 34 at home in this matchup behind five TD passes from Sellers.
I'm taking a shot that LaNorris Sellers plays on Saturday. The SEC injury report comes out on Wednesday night so trying to get ahead of any potential big line movement. Reports from South Carolina beat reporters were encouraging on Wednesday, although we still don't know if he will be available after suffering a head injury last week. Even if Sellers doesn't play, I think the SC defense can muck this game up and keep them close. I'll bite for a half unit.
