The Gators look to move past their collapse at Missouri, returning to the Swamp to face a South Carolina program in free fall. The Gamecocks have lost eight straight SEC games, the past five when holding a lead. Coach Shane Beamer is on the hot seat and trying to save himself. Jon Sumrall’s Gators have their own issues, including one of the league’s worst defenses and an offensive line that was stampeded over last weekend. During Swamp Things, Mark and Edgar break down a must-win game for the Gators with a trip to Texas and a date in Atlanta with Georgia on the horizon.
