MarShawn Lloyd missed South Carolina’s Week 10 win at Vanderbilt on Saturday. The Gamecocks would get a big boost if Lloyd returns for the trip to Florida.
South Carolina head coach Shane Beamer addressed Lloyd’s during his media conference call with reporters Sunday. Beamer expressed optimism that Lloyd would be good to go in Week 11.
The Gamecocks practiced Sunday, but Lloyd did not do much. The staff will see how the star running back looks on Tuesday.
