The South Carolina football team could put the drama aside for a day when it plays Akron on Saturday at Williams-Brice Stadium.
The Gamecocks suffered their first loss of the season last weekend against LSU in a game that was decided on the final play. After a needlessly close win over Old Dominion and the stunning upset victory at Kentucky two weeks ago, South Carolina could use an easy win that lives up to expectations.
Akron (1-2) has already suffered losses to Big Ten opponents Ohio State and Rutgers this season.
