Gamecocks and Wildcats Clash in SEC Showdown
27 Sep
Summary
- South Carolina and Kentucky both 0-2 in SEC play
- Gamecocks coming off losses to Vanderbilt and Missouri
- Wildcats lost to Ole Miss in their SEC opener

On Saturday, September 27, 2025, the South Carolina Gamecocks will host the Kentucky Wildcats in a Southeastern Conference (SEC) football showdown. Both teams have struggled in conference play so far this season, with each holding a 0-2 record in the SEC.
The Gamecocks started the year strong, winning their first two games against Virginia Tech and South Carolina State. However, they have since fallen to the Vanderbilt Commodores and Missouri Tigers, causing them to drop out of the US LBM Coaches Poll. The Wildcats, on the other hand, have a 2-1 record overall, but their lone loss came against the Ole Miss Rebels in their SEC opener.
With neither team having secured a conference victory yet, something will have to give when they meet at Williams-Brice Stadium in Columbia, South Carolina. The Gamecocks will be looking to bounce back and get their SEC campaign back on track, while the Wildcats aim to notch their first conference win of the season.
