How South Carolina’s Future Football Schedule Comes Together
Each season South Carolina plays a nine-game SEC slate the conference assigns, plus three non-conference games the school books on its own, often years ahead. Under the SEC’s current model, South Carolina has three annual opponents (Florida, Georgia and Kentucky) and rotates through the rest of the league, so the Gamecocks face every SEC program on a regular cycle rather than sticking to the old divisions.
As the SEC finalizes dates and South Carolina fills its remaining non-conference slots, this South Carolina future football schedule page updates so you always have the current opponent list in one place.
