The hype around South Carolina's week two showdown with Georgia is already big.

It just got a little bit bigger this afternoon.

SEC Nation, the conference's premier pregame show, announced Friday that it will be broadcasting live from Williams-Brice before the Gamecocks' battle with the Bulldogs Sept. 8.

The last few times the show has come to Columbia, it's set up shop in Gamecock Park across the street from Williams-Brice.

The pregame show, which airs from a college campus every week, is coming in lieu of College GameDay, which is reportedly heading to Texas A&M that week.

The Gamecocks will start their season this Saturday, though, opening at home against Coastal at noon on the SEC Network. Next week's showdown with Georgia will start at 3:30 p.m. and be televised on CBS.

The Gamecocks are currently unranked. But with a solid performance against Coastal Carolina, Muschamp’s squad could vault into the Top 25 heading into the September 8th SEC battle. Georgia enters the season ranked No. 3 by the AP Poll.
