Sellers’ Status Uncertain Before South Carolina-Arkansas

Sellers is expected to be available, but South Carolina will decide close to kickoff whether he can play. He was listed as probable on the team’s final availability report before the game, after first being listed as questionable earlier in the week. The final report is due about 90 minutes before kickoff, scheduled for 6:45 p.m. Central time at Razorback Stadium.

Sellers injured his lower body in South Carolina’s November 7 game against Texas A&M. He has thrown for 2,100 yards and 17 touchdowns this season, and the Gamecocks enter the matchup at 6-3 overall after winning four straight games.

If Sellers is unavailable, backup quarterback Cutter Woods could make his first career start. Woods has completed 11 of 17 throws, totaling 100 yards with a touchdown and a pick this season. South Carolina could also turn more often to its backs, Matt Fuller and Jabree Coleman, who together have gained 839 yards on the ground and scored nine times.

The Gamecocks will be without receiver Nyck Harbor, who was listed as out. Harbor has 24 catches for 404 yards this season. Arkansas defensive lineman Quincy Rhodes Jr. was listed as probable.

South Carolina is a 7.5-point favorite. Arkansas leads the all-time series 14-10 and has won the last four meetings in Fayetteville. The game is set to air on the SEC Network, with radio coverage on the Razorback Sports Network.
