Trips to Oklahoma, Alabama highlight South Carolina’s 2024 football schedule

COLUMBIA, S.C. (WCSC) – South Carolina won’t have to wait long to face one of the newest members of the SEC.

The conference announced opponents for the 2024 football season on Wednesday night, the year when both Oklahoma and Texas will join the league, and revealed the Gamecocks will travel to Norman for their first ever match up against the Sooners.

On top of that, they’ll also have to travel to face perennial powers Alabama that season.

South Carolina’s other road games will be at Kentucky and Vanderbilt.

The home schedule won’t be so easy either, headlined by a game with LSU. Texas A&M will also return to Columbia.

The other home games will be against Ole Miss and Missouri.

South Carolina’s scheduled non-conference games in 2024 include home games against Old Dominion, Akron and Wofford and a road game at Clemson.

Dates and times for the games will be revealed at a later date.

The conference moves to one 16-team division with the addition of Texas and Oklahoma in 2024, rather than the two-division, East-West format. The Gamecocks will not play their traditional Eastern Division rivals, Georgia, Florida or Tennessee in 2024, teams they have met on the gridiron every year since Carolina joined the SEC in 1992. South Carolina and Georgia have played 75 times since 1894, second only to the Gamecocks’ 119 contests against in-state rival Clemson.
