Will Muschamp reveals South Carolina's injury-riddled defense took another hit

South Carolina’s defense was short-handed against Clemson, but the Gamecocks suffered another hit during the game.

DL Daniel Fennell could be out for the year as the team fears he tore an ACL against Clemson.

Coach Will Muschamp after the 56-35 loss to Clemson said DL D.J. Wonnum had another surgery this week on his injured ankle. He could miss the remainder of the season.

DL Aaron Sterling (knee) is out for the season, Muschamp said.

DB Jaycee Horn (ankle) practiced this week and tried to play Saturday but couldn’t go.

Wonnum was originally injured in the season opener against Coastal Carolina and then left last week’s game against Chattanooga. Sterling missed the previous two games.

Aaron Sterling will have to have surgery. He's gone for the year.

Jaycee Horn practiced a bit this week, tried to go, couldn't get there.
