When you’re the top high school running back in a talent-heavy state like Georgia, doors tend to open up for you.
After a winning weekend for several South Carolina teams, three athletes received a variety of weekly honors to commemorate their efforts.
The Gamecock football team slipped down from last week’s No. 21 spot in both polls, with a No. 24 ranking in the most recent AP poll and a No. 23 ranking in the coaches’ poll.
East Carolina scored on its first three possessions of the game, jumping out to an early 13-7 lead over the Gamecocks. However, on its final four possessions, the Pirates were only able to notch one score, turning the ball over twice in that span.
The Gamecocks’ defense answered the bell against East Carolina regarding whether they could make a key play to help win a game.
The great thing about being young is that you’re open to the kind of mind-forging repetition that can etch all sorts of information onto an unconscious level.
Just 60 minutes into what was supposed to be a best-ever season for No. 21 South Carolina, the Gamecocks’ plans were derailed.
The featured game in college football this week brings together two heavyweights in No. 7 Michigan State and the No. 3 Oregon Ducks in a game that’s sure to give the winner an early leg up on a spot for the college football playoff.
Last Thursday, one team put up 52 points and 680 total yards of offense in their season opener at Williams-Brice.
The last time the Gamecocks saw East Carolina’s senior quarterback Shane Carden, it was 2012 and then-starting quarterback Rio Johnson had just been yanked in favor of the sophomore.
Graduate student James Armstrong knows how to change USC’s luck on the football field.
Even if you know virtually nothing about football, the collective groan coming from the Williams-Brice Stadium on Thursday told you all you needed to know. Texas A&M made the student section wish they had gone to class that day.
Kenny Hill: It took him only one game as a starter to pass for more yards in a game than former Texas A&M quarterback and Heisman winner Johnny Manziel, but sophomore quarterback Kenny Hill shattered Manziel’s mark.
Overshadowed by an atrocious defensive performance, the Gamecock receiving core was one of the only bright spots for the team against Texas A&M.
Reaching the SEC championship game isn’t a lost cause for the No. 9 South Carolina football team. But it is going to be much harder than anticipated.
There’s talent across the board when you look at South Carolina’s wide receiver and tight end positions.
1. Do you think head coach Kevin Sumlin made the right choice when he named sophomore Kenny Hill the starter for the season opener over freshman Kyle Allen?
