COLUMBIA, S.C. — Columbia’s Gamecocks listed quarterback LaNorris Sellers as questionable on Wednesday, Nov. 11, in the first SEC availability report ahead of No. 17 South Carolina’s Saturday night game at Arkansas.
Sellers hurt his left ankle in the second quarter of last week’s 17-9 home win over Texas A&M when a defender came down on it during a sack. X-rays at Williams-Brice Stadium showed no fracture, and he stayed in the game, later breaking off the late touchdown run that put it away.
Coach Shane Beamer said tests on the ankle Sunday came back clean and that the staff expects Sellers to play, with pain and swelling the main things to manage this week.
Three others share the questionable tag. Two are wideouts, Nitro Tuggle and Nyck Harbor. The third is defensive back J’Zavien Currence, who sat out the Texas A&M game.
The SEC requires updated reports before kickoff, and the final one comes out about 90 minutes before the game Saturday.
South Carolina (6-3, 4-3 SEC) kicks off at Arkansas at 7:45 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 14, at Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium in Fayetteville on SEC Network. The Razorbacks hold a 14-10 edge in the series, but the Gamecocks have won three of the last four meetings dating to 2012.
