South Carolina coach Will Muschamp has the Gamecocks on a three-game winning streak. To make it four in a row, he’ll have to win in his old stomping grounds: The Swamp.
Muschamp addressed Saturday’s return to Gainesville, where he spent part of his childhood, to take on Florida, his previous head coaching job, during his weekly teleconference Sunday night.
Muschamp on time at UF: "In this profession, if you don't win enough games, you get fired. … There's no hard feelings." #Gators #Gamecocks
