The Southeastern Conference announced on Monday that the University of South Carolina's final home game of the season will take place on November 21. The No. 21 Gamecocks will host the No. 2 Georgia Bulldogs at 7:30 p.m., with the match broadcast on ABC. This represents USC's last home game of the year, though it is possible they could secure another home game in the College Football Playoff should they win out the remainder of their season.
Currently sitting at 6-3 overall and 4-3 in the SEC, the Gamecocks are making a strong push towards the College Football Playoff. A win against Georgia would be a significant step in that direction.
However, Georgia, ranked at 2, is expected to be the top-ranked team after the new CFP rankings are released on Tuesday. The two teams have faced each other 57 times, with Georgia holding a substantial lead in the series with a record of 55 wins compared to USC's 19. Their last meeting was in 2023, ending with a 24-14 victory for USC, who were leading 14-0 at the time.
Georgia holds the edge in head-to-head matchups, having played USC more frequently than any other opponent, with Clemson being the only other team they've contested more times. USC is set to take on Arkansas this weekend, while Georgia will host Missouri.
