The Story. Test after test, this Gamecock football team has battled through adversity and grown stronger each week. Now it's time to face another hurdle: try to take down Missouri for the first time since 2018, and keep their playoff dreams alive. After getting knocked down, when the lights were the brightest, the stars made plays. Both Jalon Kilgore and Dalevon Campbell came through in the clutch and proved this team is living up to their new mantra. They're fire proof.

🔺 Onto The Next. The men’s basketball team fell to No. 22 Xavier 75-66 in the Fort Myers Tip-Off. Collin Murray-Boyles, Jamarii Thomas, and Jacobi Wright each scored in double figures with 13, 11, and 10 points respectively. The Gamecocks will turn around to play Virginia Tech tomorrow at 6 p.m. on FS1.

🔺 Keep Stacking. Gamecock football’s Kyle Kennard continues to stack awards this season! He has been named a finalist for the 2024 Bronko Nagurski Trophy, which honors the nation’s top defensive player. The winner will be announced at the awards banquet on December 9 in Charlotte.

Kennard has also been named a finalist for the Lombardi Award, and a semifinalist for the Bednarik Award and the Walter Camp Player of the Year Award.

🔺 Rewriting Records. The Gamecock swim & dive team had a great showing at the Gamecock Invitational! The women’s team won the meet for the third-straight year, while the men finished third. Madison Kolessar and Kaden Smesho set school records in the 1650 free and the 200 back, respectively. Amy Riordan and Greta Pelzek set pool records in the 200 back and 200 fly.
