South Carolina 2024 football schedule announced
Christmas has seemingly come early these last few days for South Carolina. And now, the next gift to open is the team’s 2024 schedule.
On Wednesday, the SEC announced every team’s 12-game slate, which now includes all dates.
For the Gamecocks, they’ll open the 2024 season against Old Dominion on Aug. 31 at Williams-Brice Stadium.
To open the SEC slate, South Carolina will travel to Lexington to face the Kentucky Wildcats (Sept. 7), a team it beat 17-14 last year.
The Gamecocks will be back at home on Sept. 14 to face the LSU Tigers. On Sept. 21, South Carolina will return home to face Akron, who it last played back in 2018 as a makeup game to replace the Marshall Thundering Herd on that year’s schedule.
South Carolina will get its first bye week of the year the week of Sept. 28 before hosting Lane Kiffin and the Ole Miss Rebels on Oct. 5.
One week later (Oct. 12), the Gamecocks will travel to Tuscaloosa to face the Alabama Crimson Tide. It will be the first time they’ve played at Bryant-Denny Stadium since 2009.
For the first time ever, South Carolina will play the Oklahoma Sooners out in Norman on Oct. 19. The Sooners will be in their first season, along with Texas, in the SEC. It will be a reunion of sorts for head coach Shane Beamer, who coached at OU from 2018-20.
