Few football programs know better than South Carolina and their respective head coach, Shane Beamer, what a demanding schedule looks like. Life in the SEC and having a nationally recognizable program in the Clemson Tigers as your archrivals will quickly ingrain that notion into your head. But what do the numbers from the 2023 season say about the Gamecocks upcoming 2024 slate?

Phil Steele and his team crunched the numbers for every FBS football program and found that the collective 2023 winning percentage for Carolina's 2024 opponents was 58.2%, the 25th-highest mark in the country. For reference, seven SEC teams rank ahead of them, including Florida, whose opponent win percentage of 67.9% ranks No. 1 nationally. Steele's team also found that the Gamecocks are playing eight teams that had a winning record last Fall, nine teams that played in a bowl game, and six teams that are projected to be ranked at the beginning of the 2024 season.
