Injury Bug bites Gamecocks...again


Well by now the UT loss has been swallowed by most and time to focus on the next game as it is very important especially with what lies after it - UF and CU.  Seems the task of beating a good Ark-kansas team will be a weee bit tougher now that news of possibly 3 gamecock starters being out.  This is just more to the IR report joining Paulk and T Rav.

Defensive end Cliff Matthews has been ruled out by coach Steve Spurrier after injuring his shoulder at Tennessee and it could be more but for sure he is a no-go versus Ark-kansas.  Today the team reported that safety Chris Culliver would miss the game after injuring his shoulder during the UT game.  As reported, this may also have to do with a little issue of him not telling coaches the extent of the injury and not playing up to his potential...nonetheless, he is not playing.  The thrid starter that could be out is offensive tackle Jarriel King due to a concussion, outside chance he could play but not looking good.

So as you can see the job of beating Ark-kansas is a little tougher due to some losses on both sides of the ball.  But the goal remains the same - to win - just the manner to which the goal is achieved is up to some new gamecocks.  Hope the result is a sound defeat of Ark-kansas on their home turf.

Arkansas is hurting right now, too, with starting corner Ramon Broadway doubtful and star tailback Michael Smith probable but banged up. It's just that time of year. That off week can't come soon enough for us.
