Result:
LOSS

South Carolina returned eight starters on offense this year and it has shown so far as the Gamecocks are averaging 34.3 points and 477 total yards of offense. Quarterback Jake Bentley is being asked to run the ball some in addition to passing for 780 yards and completing 68.3 percent with six touchdowns. Bentley finished 19-of-28 for 261 yards and a touchdown while rushing for 45 yards on nine carries in his team's 37-14 win over Vanderbilt.  Rico Dowdle ran for 112 yards on 20 carries with a touchdown as the Gamecocks racked up 534 yards of offense, including 273 on the ground. Kentucky is 4-0, but is still just a small favorite in this matchup as the oddsmaker could be anticipating a letdown after the Wildcats upset Mississippi State as a 9.5-point underdog last week. The Gamecocks are 5-0-1 ATS their last six road games dating to last season and 5-1-2 ATS their last eight conference games. Also, South Carolina is 7-3-2 ATS its last 12 games overall. Kentucky is 1-6 ATS when following an ATS win and just 7-20 ATS its last 27 home games and 4-9 ATS its last 13 games overall. Back South Carolina.
