"I can't explain how excited I am," USC defensive tackle Kelcy Quarles said Saturday following the scrimmage at Williams-Brice Stadium. "We've been working all summer, the whole team. We're a complete team. We're going to be fine. We're ready for this game."
USC coaches have mined North Carolina for talent over the past decade, pulling out standouts such as defensive linemen Melvin Ingram and Travian Robertson, and cornerback/kick returner Chris Culliver. The 2013 roster contains 14 players from the Tar Heel State, most prominently left tackle Corey Robinson, tight end Drew Owens, defensive tackle J.T. Surratt and wide receiver K.J. Brent.
"I have a couple people I know playing for the Tar Heels," Brent said recently. "When it was scheduled in my freshman year, we talked about it and knew it was going to be a good game. Battle of the border. I'm looking forward to it."

For the first time in school history, USC will enter a season opener with a national ranking higher than No. 9. The Gamecocks are ranked No. 6 (Associated Press) and No. 7 (USA Today Coaches poll) in the two major preseason polls.
Quarles, however, views that poll position as the floor, not the ceiling.
