With the first few weeks of the college football season completed, conference play is set to ramp up as teams dive into the heart of their schedules. This includes a Week 3 matchup between LSU and South Carolina, where College GameDay will be on-site in Columbia to highlight the game.

These teams haven’t met since 2020, when the Tigers dominated the Gamecocks with a 52-24 victory. However, South Carolina comes into this matchup with momentum after a win over Kentucky.

Meanwhile, head coach Brian Kelly’s LSU squad is looking to avoid a second loss in three weeks and the growing pressure of missing out on the 12-team College Football Playoff.
