The Akron Zips (1-2) visit the South Carolina Gamecocks (2-1) at Williams-Brice Stadium on Saturday, 21, 2024. The contest will be broadcast on ESPNU, with the opening kick at 7:30 p.m.

Why the South Carolina Gamecocks beating Akron is so important for the program. The South Carolina Gamecocks are already two games into their conference schedule this year but in week four they are getting a bit of a breather.

The SEC has a new policy enforcing mandatory “availability reports” before every conference game. But because South Carolina is playing a non-conference foe, it did not need to disclosure any injury information and, thus, does not have to divulge Sellers’ true status.
