Jadeveon Clowney expressed frustration with his role in the South Carolina defense following their loss to Georgia.

Clowney is widely expected to be the first overall pick in the 2013 NFL Draft.

Clowney recorded three tackles and a sack on Saturday.

"Very frustrating," said Clowney. "I told the coaches you got to put me somewhere else -- in the middle if you want to -- somewhere I can make some plays [to] help my team get in position to win. But [Georgia] took me right out of the game."

Clowney had 13 sacks last season.

"It's hard out there trying to chase from the backside, and they just took me right out of the game," Clowney said. "They want to move me around -- that's up to them.

"I'm going to keep playing my assignments. I set the edge most of the night, [but] the ball went away from me on the backside chasing. That's just how the game went."
