South Carolina shocked the SEC and probably themselves last week when they took down Georgia in a rivalry matchup expected to go the other way. The Gamecocks were coming off a blowout loss to Texas A&M and a struggling win over East Carolina, but they put it all together against the Bulldogs to get the 38-35 win. However, South Carolina does not have much time to celebrate the victory as they cannot afford to get caught overlooking the struggling Commodores as the team travels to Vanderbilt for an SEC East road matchup.

South Carolina played the best they could against Georgia while getting a few missed field goals their way. Georgia's kicked broke an SEC record for consecutive field goals and then promptly missed two to cost Georgia the game. The Gamecocks hung in to get the late win. Now they get a road game against Vanderbilt who is perfectly capable of getting an upset win themselves.

Vanderbilt might 1-2 on the season and last in the SEC in scoring offense, but the Gamecocks are at the bottom in points allowed, so this matchup might be more even than South Carolina might want. they will try and take advantage of their passing game, averaging 301 yards per game. Thompson has 903 yards on the season with eight touchdowns and three interceptions. 

In Derek Mason's first season with Vanderbilt, the team has certainly struggled, working with two quarterbacks at the moment who have both seen their share of mistakes to this point in the year. They both expect to come out play like they have nothing lose in order to try and beat the Gamecocks.

South Carolina entered the season with SEC dreams as they were heavily predicted to compete with Georgia for the East title. That planned looked to be out of the picture after they were throttled by the Aggies in the opening week when they gave up a school-worst 680 yards of total offense. However, back-to-back wins have things on track as long as they get the Vandy win.
