The South Carolina – Tennessee football game, scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 28 at Williams-Brice Stadium in Columbia, will kick off at 7:45 p.m. ET, it was announced today. The game will be nationally televised on either ESPN or ESPN2. That decision will be announced next Monday.

Tennessee leads the all-time series, 19-3-2, but Carolina won for the first time ever in Knoxville last season, posting a 16-15 win, snapping a 12-game losing streak to the Volunteers. The game features two of the winningest coaches in SEC history in Carolina’s Steve Spurrier and UT’s Phillip Fulmer.

The game will be USC’s fifth national appearance of the season on either ESPN or ESPN2.
