The 2023 edition of the South Carolina vs. Georgia rivalry is on the way with the Gamecocks hoping to repeat history and pull off an upset of a highly-ranked Bulldogs team.

Spencer Rattler leads the Gamecocks into Sanford Stadium as a 27-point underdog this time. Suffice it to say, the Bulldogs aren't expected to trip up in this Week 3 matchup, but the upset victim rarely is.

Before we see whether Carson Beck and the Bulldogs can withstand the upstart Gamecocks, let's look at the history of the series.
