With the upcoming matchup against the Florida Gators on Saturday afternoon, what better excuse to look back on one of the biggest wins in program history?

It’s 2010. We’re in the swamp. The SEC East is on the line. Gamecock great, Patrick DiMarco, joins us in the film room to reminisce about that unforgettable game as he shares insight and stories about that team you've never heard before.

📈 STOCK UP

🔼 A New Class. Eight new names are now enshrined in the South Carolina Lettermen’s Hall of Fame! Allison Brennan (swimming & diving), Ernest Dye (football), Eric Ecker (men’s golf), Shaunzinski Gortman (women’s basketball), Wallie Jones (baseball), Chris Mayotte (men’s tennis), Kim Pietro (softball), and Demetra Washington (women’s track & field) were all inducted into the Hall of Fame yesterday.

🔼 A Legend. There’s no other way to describe it: Marcus Lattimore is a Gamecock legend, and now he’ll be part of the 2023 SEC Football Legends class. Lattimore and the rest of the group will be honored at the SEC’s Weekend of Champions from December 1-2 in Atlanta. Check out the full class from across the conference here.

🔼 Coach’s Keys. Coach Beamer is back to give us his keys to the game as the Gamecocks get ready to host the Gators on Saturday afternoon.

🔼 Bump, Set, Spike. South Carolina volleyball took down SEC foe Georgia this week in four sets. Freshman Campbell Paris tallied a career-high 18 kills, the most from a South Carolina freshman since Riley Whitesides posted 19 in 2021. 2,178 fans packed into the Carolina Volleyball Center, marking the fifth-biggest crowd in program history and the seventh sell-out of the season.

The Gamecocks will be back on the court against Texas A&M on the road on Sunday afternoon.

🔼 Desert Bound. Are you ready to head to the desert with the Gamecocks? Ticket packages are available for the inaugural Arizona Tip-Off as South Carolina men’s hoops heads west. The Gamecocks will take on DePaul on November 17, then face either San Francisco or Grand Canyon on November 19.
