The Citadel vs South Carolina Prediction
South Carolina has had issues with big numbers this season and this is a potential look ahead spot with rival Clemson on deck. However, The Citadel is making a case as one of the worst teams in the country, as it can’t score the ball and has yet to beat a D1 team. In fact, The Citadel hasn’t beat a D1 team since November 11 of last year. That’s 397 days ago for those keeping track at home. The Citadel is also 1-6 ATS on the season. I want nothing to do with The Citadel. Give me South Carolina and the chalk.
