Let’s stick around in the Gamecocks+ Film Room today!

It may be somewhat of a thankless position, but when the defensive line holds the SEC's leader in rushing yards to less than 40 yards as a team and produces a few sacks, they'll get some recognition.

🔼 Basketball School. You probably don’t need a reminder about what special seasons both Gamecock women’s and men’s basketball teams had last year, but this stat puts it in perspective: The combined men’s and women’s basketball season record of 64-8 was the best winning percentage among all NCAA D1 schools.
