South Carolina comes to Norman in the final home game of the 2024 season. Shane Beamer’s Gamecocks are the real-deal too. He’s revamped and rebuilds the often forgotten SEC program. This is a late season matchup that has old Baylor or Iowa State vibes. The Gamecocks are a tough program and have the potential to serve as late season spoilers for the Sooners.

No SEC schedule is easy, but this would be one of the lesser of evils for the Sooners. The boys better be ready for Beamer ball, because South Carolina is legit, and the birds will be ready to play in Norman without a doubt.
