South Carolina vs. Wofford predictions and other matchups in Week 13

Before the big one next Saturday, South Carolina still has one more game left at Williams-Brice Stadium this weekend.

The No. 18 The Gamecocks will host Wofford on Saturday at 16 on SEC Network Plus. It will also be Senior Day as well as the Salute the Troops game.

The GamecockCentral and 107.5 The Game staff shared their predictions for the game between South Carolina and the Terriers, as well as other Week 13 matchups from around the country.

George Bagwell: I don’t really have much to say here. Shoutout to The Citadel for beating Wofford by double digits last week. Please force the ball to Joshua Simon for two quarters and then insert Luke Doty at quarterback. South Carolina 54, Wofford 6.

Peyton Butt: I think South Carolina has the strength and determination to end the final home game on a really high note for the seniors. Wofford’s quarterback is athletic and quick, but the strength of the defense will be able to stop him early. South Carolina 49, Wofford 10.

Elijah Campbell: Not much to say about this game. The Gamecocks will score a lot of points. The terrier will not score many points. But it will be fun to watch the Gamecocks beat an opponent with absolutely no stress! It will be a fun celebration of the seniors who have done a ton to build a foundation for this program that is definitely on an upward trajectory. South Carolina 47, Wofford 6.

Chris Clark: South Carolina continues its winning ways and is able to get some players some much needed rest later in this contest. South Carolina 41, Wofford 7.

Terry Ford: This should be an easy win with many of the players coming on. Wofford does nothing to impress you on either side of the ball. To Clemson! South Carolina 52, Wofford 13.

Griffin Goodwyn: Before the season began, Debo Williams said South Carolina’s defense would “go for donuts” — or shutouts — every week. Saturday’s contest against Wofford will be as good an opportunity as any for the Gamecocks to achieve that goal. The Terriers have struggled offensively this season, averaging just 16.7 points per game this season. And South Carolina will have by far the strongest defense Wofford has faced in 2024, as the Terriers’ previous 11 games have come against FCS schools. The Gamecocks will also be motivated to give their seniors a gritty sendoff, and with another sellout crowd at Williams-Brice Stadium, there’s no reason they shouldn’t come away with a big win. South Carolina 48, Wofford 7.

Tyler head: Carolina is the better and more talented team here by a significant margin. It should be a routine Saturday in Willy B. South Carolina 52, Wofford 10.

Wes Mitchell: It should be a nice senior night in South Carolina, where the Gamecocks could rotate more early and get most of the guard on the field late. While I usually keep my score predictions consistent across all platforms, this is a slightly adjusted score from the one I gave on Thursday’s podcast. South Carolina 52, Wofford 7.

Jay Phillips: After the thriller against Missouri, the Gamecocks get a chance to finish at home against a SoCon school. Send the front line out to get reps, score some points and ensure that the late stages of this game will be played by guys who haven’t seen much time. The chance to win 10 games is very real and that mindset has to be in place no matter what. South Carolina 38, Wofford 10.

Kendall Smith: South Carolina is playing its best football right now and I don’t think it will stop this weekend. Gamecocks 41, Terriers 10.

Mike Uva: South Carolina has finished with eight wins or more in the regular season only 13 times in their 100+ year history. They reach 14 on Saturday to keep the momentum rolling into Clemson week. South Carolina 41, Wofford 9.

Jack Veltri: Just donuts. South Carolina 44, Wofford 0.

Chris Wellbaum: I’m a little nervous about South Carolina going forward, but South Carolina is getting better every week and has all the confidence in the world. The Gamecocks should cruise. South Carolina 43, Wofford 12.

Kevin Miller: South Carolina should whip up Wofford despite taking the week to get some players healthy and playing others who haven’t gotten as many snaps this season. Any comfortable win that includes a blank post-match injury report should be considered a success heading into next weekend’s rivalry game. This Saturday, a Terriers team that has turned the ball over almost as much as they have scored shouldn’t have much success. The suddenly hot Gamecock offense had to continue as well. South Carolina 42, Wofford 3.
