The 21st-ranked Gamecocks, though, will take any kind of victory they can get Saturday night at Tennessee, where they've won once in 14 tries.
South Carolina (6-2, 3-2 SEC) eked out a 14-10 home victory last week against Vanderbilt on Stephen Garcia's 43-yard touchdown pass to Alshon Jeffrey early in the fourth quarter and an intentional grounding penalty that effectively ended a Commodores' comeback in South Carolina territory.
"It was just a good victory for us. We're proud of our players," coach Steve Spurrier said. "We didn't play all that great , but we hung in there."
