* Turmoil in South Carolina. Dylan Stewart is suspended. Cutter Woods received first-team snaps this week, which could create a musical chairs situation at QB for the Cocks.  * Coach Beamer is a dead man walking, I have friends in South Carolina who have been to multiple games and the vibe is that it’s a forgone conclusion this is it for him. There is no juice and that’s the reason you back South Carolina at home. Under Beamer the Gamecocks are 13-11 as a home favorite ATS, but this feels different. * Kentucky is headed in the opposite direction, they’ve proven their road chops by controlling the game in a win at Kyle Field over A&M. * The loss Dylan Stewart is huge, he was a one man blitz package. When Minchey has been in a clean pocket he’s been surgical. 73%, 7 TDs, no picks. You toss in a running game that looks really strong with CJ Baxter leading the way behind the 9th rated runblocking offensive line. * I get that this is the SEC and homefield is not to be overlooked, but the wrong team is favored here.
