2015 Attendance: 22,580

Maybe fans of the Gamecocks were aware of something the rest of the nation didn’t know last Spring. Attendance dropped by almost 14,000 people from 2014. Or, maybe it was the weather to blame for the drop in attendance. I’m guessing it was probably both.

So, what are we expecting from the Gamecocks spring game this year? A whole lot of auditions after a terrible year last year, and after hiring Florida Gators former head coach Will Muschamp. Muschamp was not able to duplicate Spurrier’s success at Florida, and that leads me to believe South Carolina is in for a couple tough years.

But they’ll have a good defense.

I wouldn’t be surprised if this game ended in a 0-0 tie. Would you?
