🎥 THE STORY

The Story. Noise, uncertainty, and even doubt from the outside isn't going to rattle this group. Some games are just bigger than others, and Shane Beamer's Gamecocks were ready. South Carolina marched into Lexington, Kentucky and dominated for four quarters on the backs of an incredible defensive performance. With LSU and College Gameday coming to town, Coach Beamer and Debo Williams talk about legacies and where this season can go from here.

🏈 COLLEGE GAMEDAY
