Spurrier: Every offensive position up for grabs

COLUMBIA, S.C. -- South Carolina coach Steve Spurrier is so bothered with his offense that he's ready to get a whole new one.

Spurrier says no one's job on that side of the ball is safe this week as the Gamecocks (2-2) prepare to play UAB (1-3).

Spurrier says he doesn't expect wholesale changes when he announces his starting lineup after Thursday's practice, but says he wants to shake things up with an offense that has struggled to run the ball or throw long passes.

The coach says redshirt freshman quarterback Stephen Garcia will play, but hasn't decided if he will start in place of sophomore Chris Smelley.

Whomever starts should have an opportunity for a big game against the Blazers defense, which is allowing 495 yards and 35 points a game.
