South Carolina Visits No. 1-Ranked Territory Alabama in Week 4 SEC Matchup

LaNorris Sellers and the Gamecocks head to Tuscaloosa on Saturday night to face a Top 10 Alabama team that needed fourth-quarter comebacks to beat them the past two seasons.

South Carolina travels to Alabama on Saturday night for a Week 4 SEC game in Tuscaloosa, with a Top 10 Crimson Tide team hosting an unranked Gamecocks squad. Over the past two seasons, Alabama edged South Carolina by scores of 27-25 and 29-22, and both games saw the Tide trailing in the fourth quarter before late touchdowns avoided upsets.

Quarterback LaNorris Sellers, in his third season as the starter, has completed 62.8% of his passes for 648 yards with five touchdowns and three interceptions, plus 172 rushing yards and a score. In two career games against Alabama, he is 41-of-63 for 460 yards with three touchdowns and two interceptions, adding 86 rushing yards on 34 carries.

Running back Matt Fuller leads South Carolina on the ground with 272 yards and three touchdowns on 38 attempts, along with eight catches for 93 yards and a receiving score. Wide receiver Nyck Harbor is tied for the team lead with eight receptions for 127 yards and leads the SEC with 77 yards on four kick returns.

Defensively, linebacker Justin Okoronkwo, a former Alabama player who appeared in the 2024 meeting, paces the Gamecocks with 19 tackles. Defensive back Vicari Swain leads the nation with two punt-return touchdowns on six returns, averaging 25.3 yards per attempt, to go with four tackles and a sack.
