Coastal Carolina vs South Carolina Prediction

Coastal Carolina is a below average team on both sides of the ball, but it’s still managed to win six games. South Carolina is obviously the more talented side, but it’s also lost five straight games and has underachieved mightily offensively this season. While the talent alone could lead to an ugly win, I question if South Carolina is still motivated to show up. South Carolina has failed to cover 5 of its last 9 games as a double-digit favorite. Yes, the schedule has been murderers row for South Carolina during this losing streak, but still. South Carolina has shown us nothing this season that indicates it’s gong to show up and put together a great 60 minutes of football. Give me the points.
