It’s a cloudy Saturday evening over Sanford Stadium in Athens as the Georgia Bulldogs get ready to take on the South Carolina Gamecocks.  This is WUOG’s first edition of the live football blog. I’ll be providing three updates every quarter, with one at halftime. Fell free to leave any comments on the blog during the game if you have any questions.

South Carolina comes into this matchup 1-0 after gutting out a 7-3 victory against North Carolina State.  The Bulldogs are 0-1, coming off a 24-10 loss at the hands of Oklahoma State.  Both teams will be looking for drastic improvements in their offenses.

Joe Cox will get the start for the Bulldogs, despite talk earlier in the week of an injury.  Look for running back Caleb King to see some carries tonight for Georgia as well.  On the South Carolina side, quarterback Stephen Garcia will try to execute coach Steve Spurrier’s offensive attack with more precision than last week. Garcia threw for only 148 yards and had an interception against NC State.  This game could shape up to be a low-scoring affair. (more…)
