Lattimore, who has 584 yards and 10 touchdowns, was held to a season-low 35 on 13 carries in the defeat, which ended a school-record 10-game win streak. Shaw was picked off twice in the fourth quarter, his third game with multiple interceptions out of 24 over his Gamecocks career.
Shaw was also sacked a season-high four times while South Carolina's pass rush recorded just one. The Gamecocks had totaled 25 sacks through their first six games with highly touted sophomore Jadeveon Clowney compiling a team-best 6 1/2.:scared
Despite last week's disappointing performance, South Carolina can move into a tie with Florida and get back in the title game picture with a victory Saturday.
Lattimore, though, did not practice Wednesday because of a bruised hip and Spurrier says his junior star might not start Saturday. Spurrier had said Lattimore was running well earlier in the week, but the injury kept him out of Wednesday's workout. Lattimore arrived at practice and watched from the sidelines.
If Lattimore can't go, Spurrier says backup Kenny Miles and freshman Mike Davis would handle the load at tailback.
Despite Lattimore's absence, the Gamecocks' rushing attack still managed to spoil Muschamp's first coaching matchup with Spurrier, who won a national title during his stint at Florida from 1990 to 2001. South Carolina registered 215 of its 299 yards on the ground in a 17-12 home victory Nov. 12 with Shaw totaling 88 and two touchdowns.
The Gamecocks, who trail 6-23-3 in the series, are seeking their first three-game win streak over Florida.

I heard on the radio Clowny may not play but I believe it is another Spurrier alacadabra.
Florida is pumped and has the revenge factor for this cock team.
