South Carolina football released its official depth chart for Missouri on Monday and this week’s edition featured a few tweaks mostly representing changes we’ve already seen play out on the field.

The Gamecocks completely shifted their offensive line for Florida coming off the bye week and that’s now showcased on the depth chart with Vershon Lee as the starter at right tackle, Nick Gargiulo at center and Trai Jones sliding into the starting lineup at left guard. Freshmen Tree Babalade and Trovon Baugh are still the starters at left tackle and right guard, respectively.

Jakai Moore, who has been dealing with a shoulder injury, is now listed as the backup at left guard with Tyshawn Wannamaker shifting inside as the backup at right guard.

South Carolina’s configuration in the defensive backfield on the depth chart now more closely resembled how they’ve structured it the last two games.

Nick Emmanwori is now officially listed as the top nickelback after playing there against Tennessee and Florida while DQ Smith and Jalon Kilgore are listed as the starting safeties. Keenan Nelson Jr., South Carolina’s Week 1 starter at nickel, is now the backup free safety, a position we haven’t seen him play.

Elijah Davis, JT Geer, and Tyreek Johnson are all three still listed as co-starters at defensive end but Davis is now first in the order after starting this past week against the Gators.

Mario Anderson and Dakereon Joyner are again listed as co-starters at running back, just as they were three weeks ago, but it’s Anderson who has started the last two games.
