THE HISTORY: 2013 marks the 120th season of inter-
collegiate football at the University of South Carolina,
dating back to 1892. It is the 107th-consecutive year
in which South Carolina has competed on the gridiron.
The University did not field a team in either 1893 or
1906. Carolina owns an all-time record of 565-545-44.
SEC HISTORY: The 2013 season marks South Caro-
lina’s 22nd year in the Southeastern Conference. South
Carolina and Arkansas joined the 10-team league prior
to the 1992 campaign. The SEC became a 14-team con-
ference last year when Missouri and Texas A&M joined.
The Gamecocks earned their first SEC Eastern Division
title in the 2010 season.
MAKING HISTORY: The Gamecocks have put togeth-
er back-to-back 11-win seasons, the first back-to-back,
double-digit win seasons in school history. They have
logged two of their three 10-or more win seasons in
the last two years. The only previous 10-win campaign
came in 1984. The Gamecocks have won 22 games over
the past two seasons, 31 over the past three seasons,
and 38 over the past four seasons, all school records.
THE RANKINGS: The Gamecocks finished eighth in
the final 2012 Associated Press poll and seventh in the
final USA Today/Coaches poll. It was the highest fin-
ish on record for Carolina, one spot better in both polls
than in 2011.
TOP-10 PROGRAM: The Gamecocks have put to-
gether back-to-back Top 10 finishes for the first time
in school history, finishing ninth in 2011 and eighth in
2012 according to the Associated Press. They finished
one spot higher in the Coaches’ poll both years. The
Gamecocks have finished among the nation’s Top 25 for
three-straight seasons, another “first” in school history.
Here are South Carolina’s final AP Top-25 rankings:
YEAR (FINAL AP): 1958 (13); 1984 (11); 1987 (15);
2000 (19); 2001 (13); 2010 (22); 2011 (9); 2012 (8).
IN THE POLLS: The Gamecocks have been ranked in
the Associated Press Top-25 for 47 consecutive polls,
starting with the second week of the 2010 season. That
is the longest consecutive streak in school history.
According to research compiled by “The Blitz,” South
Carolina was ranked in the A.P. poll 148 times from
1936-2011, 14 times as a member of the ACC (1936-
1970), 57 times as a Independent (1971-1991) and 77
times since joining the SEC prior to the 2012 season.
YES THEY CALL IT A STREAK: The Gamecocks are
tied for the fifth-longest current streak of being ranked
in the Associated Press’s Top 25. Carolina and Stanford
have been ranked for 47 consecutive weeks, trailing
only Alabama, LSU, Oregon and Oklahoma.

Press polls, the final two of the 2011 season and the
first eight of the 2012 campaign, before falling out after
successive losses at LSU and Florida. The Gamecocks

final five games of the 2012 season, with consecutive
victories over Tennessee, Arkansas, Wofford, Clemson
and Michigan. It’s the first time in school history that
Carolina enters the offseason on a five-game winning
streak. The previous best was four, set in 1958 and
matched in 2011. The 1912 unit went 4-0-1 in its last
five games and the 1947 squad went 5-0-1 in its last
six contests. The Gamecocks will enter the 2013 season
tied with Rice for the nation’s eighth-longest winning
streak behind Ohio State (12), Arkansas State (8), Stan-
ford (8), Utah State (7), Vanderbilt (7), San Jose State
(7) and Texas A&M (6).
THEY’RE BACK: The Gamecocks welcome 36 return-
ing letterwinners to begin the 2013 campaign. The 36
lettermen consist of 19 offensive players, 16 defensive
players and one special teams player. The Gamecocks
lost 24 lettermen, including 10 on offense, 11 on de-
fense and three from special teams. A complete list of
the returning and lost lettermen can be found on page
12.
SQUAD BREAKDOWN: The 107-man squad con-
sists of five seniors, 25 juniors, 31 sophomores, and
46 freshmen.

GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN: The Gamecocks said
goodbye to 26 lettermen from last year’s bowl roster
including 12 starters. The departing starters include
TE Justice Cunningham, OC T.J. Johnson, TB
Marcus Lattimore, WR D.L. Moore and WR Ace
Sanders on the offensive side of the ball and LB Regi-
nald Bowens, SPR DeVonte Holloman, DT Byron
Jerideau, FS D.J. Swearinger, DE Devin Taylor
and LB Shaq Wilson on the defensive side of the ball,
along with PK Adam Yates. A complete list of the de-
parted letterwinners can be found on page 12.
EVERY TIME OUT: The Gamecocks had nine players
start all 13 games a year ago. Of the nine, WR Bruce
Ellington and OG Ronald Patrick will return for the
2013 campaign.
THE HEAD BALL COACH: Steve Spurrier begins his
ninth season directing the Gamecock football program.
He has logged a 66-37 mark (.641) in Columbia. The
Head Ball Coach is Carolina’s winningest coach with
66 victories and is second in games coached with 103,
behind Rex Enright (140). Spurrier owns a 208-77-2
mark (.729) in 23 seasons as a collegiate head coach,
with previous stops at Duke and Florida.
AT THE TOP OF THE LEADER BOARD: Head coach
Steve Spurrier recorded his 65th victory at South Caro-
lina in his 102nd career game as the Gamecocks’ head
coach in the regular-season finale at Clemson and add-
ed No. 66 in the Outback Bowl against Michigan. He
surpassed Rex Enright (64) for the most coaching wins
in school history. He is already the winningest coach at
Florida with 122 victories. The legendary Bear Bryant
(60 at Kentucky and 232 at Alabama) is the only other
coach to own the most wins at two SEC schools.
TOPS IN HIS FIELD: Steve Spurrier became the 71st
head college football coach (all divisions) and the 22nd
in Division I history to record 200 wins when he accom-
plished that feat against UAB in 2012. He ranks third
among active Division I coaches with 208 wins. In ad-
dition, the HBC has 47 wins as a head coach at the pro-
fessional level, giving him 255 career coaching wins.
UNCHARTED TERRITORY: The 2013 Outback Bowl
marked the seventh time Coach Spurrier has taken
Carolina to a bowl game. They have been bowl-eligible
in each of his eight campaigns. No other coach in Caro-
lina history has taken the Gamecocks to more than three
bowl games (Jim Carlen and Joe Morrison). Coach
Spurrier is 3-4 in bowl games at South Carolina, in-
cluding back-to-back bowl wins over Nebraska (Capital
One Bowl) and Michigan (Outback Bowl). He is the only
Gamecock coach to post three bowl victories.
COACHING SHUFFLE: The Gamecocks made just
one coaching change during the off-season, as veteran
defensive line coach Brad Lawing left for Florida and
was replaced by former North Carolina defensive line
coach Deke Adams.
ENROLLING EARLY: The Gamecocks welcomed
three scholarship players to the roster in January. The
threesome included junior college cornerback Ronnie
Martin and a pair of high schoolers who graduated a
semester early, quarterback Connor Mitch and offen-
sive lineman D.J. Park.
IN THE CLASSROOM: The Gamecocks placed 29
players on the 2012 SEC Fall Academic Honor Roll
while posting a team GPA of 2.918, highest in school
history. Among those who made the SEC Honor Roll
include returnees Landon Ard, K.J. Brent, Dam-
iere Byrd, A.J. Cann, Shon Carson, Gerald
Dixon Jr., Phillip Dukes, Bruce Ellington, Deon
Green, Mason Harris, Tyler Hull, Kadetrix
Marcus, Drew Owens, Ronald Patrick, Kelvin
Rainey, Corey Robinson, Brandon Shell, Brock
Stadnik, Clayton Stadnik and Dylan Thompson.
THEY PAY TO SEE THE GAMECOCKS PLAY: The
Gamecocks ranked 18th in the nation in average home
attendance in 2012, averaging 80,001 at Williams-Brice
Stadium. That includes a school record 85,199 who
were on hand to watch the Gamecocks thump Georgia,
35-7.
TWO-SPORT STARS: Head coach Steve Spurrier is
not adverse to having his players participate in other
sports at Carolina. Wide receiver Bruce Ellington has
been the starting point guard for the basketball team for
the past three seasons, while tailback Shon Carson
and cornerback Ahmad Christian spent the spring
with the Gamecock baseball team. In addition, wide re-
ceiver Damiere Byrd was a sprinter during the indoor
track & field season.
IT’S A NUMBERS GAME: The Gamecocks return 42
percent of their rushing yards, 96 percent of their pass-
ing yards and 54 percent of their receiving yards from a
year ago, In addition, six of the squad’s top 13 tacklers,
return for the 2013 campaign.
GOOD HOME COOKIN’: The Gamecocks have won
their last 11 games at Williams-Brice Stadium. Caro-
lina is 27-3 in its last 30 home games. The only home
losses in the last four years came to top-ranked Florida
in 2009, to 17th-ranked Arkansas in 2010 and to de-
fending national champion Auburn in 2011.
PERFECT AT HOME: The Gamecocks went 7-0 at
home in 2012. It marked the first time they ran the table
at home since joining the SEC. The last time they went
undefeated at home was in 1987. They have been unde-
feated and untied at home 10 times.
TOP HOME STREAKS: The Gamecocks have won
11-straight home games, their longest stretch since
joining the SEC and the third-longest streak in school
history. Here are the top home winning streaks:

AN SEC SIX-PACK: With a 6-2 SEC mark in 2012,
the Gamecocks reached six SEC victories for the sec-
ond year in a row. They had never had six SEC wins in
a season prior to 2011. They finished the 2000, 2001,
2005 and 2010 seasons with 5-3 SEC marks. Carolina
finished 2012 with at least a .500 SEC mark for the 10th
time in 21 seasons and have put together three-straight
.500-or-better SEC records for the first time in school
history.
GAMECOCKS IN THE SEC: The Gamecocks wrapped
up their 21st season of league play in the SEC in 2012.
They have played 168 SEC regular-season contests
since joining the league. Here’s a breakdown of the
Gamecocks in three-year segments in conference regu-
lar season action:
Years Record .500 or Better Pct.
1992-1994 9-15-0 1994 .375
1995-1997 9-14-1 1996 .396
1998-2000 5-19-0 2000 .208

2007-2009 10-14-0 2008 .417
2010-2012 17-7-0 2010, 2011, 2012 .708
Totals 72-95-1 Ten Times .432
OUT OF THEIR LEAGUE: The Gamecocks went 5-0
in non-conference action in both 2011 and 2012, and
have been undefeated in regular season non-confer-
ence play for three consecutive years. They are 31-7 in
non-conference games under head coach Steve Spur-
rier, including wins in 29 of their last 34 non-SEC tilts.
The year-by-year breakdown: 2005 (2-2); 2006 (5-0);
2007 (3-1); 2008 (3-2); 2009 (4-1); 2010 (4-1); 2011
(5-0); 2012 (5-0). They have a regular season winning
streak over non-conference opponents of 16 games.
South Carolina’s last regular season non-conference
loss came at Clemson in 2008.
KEEPING THE FANS HAPPY: The Gamecocks have
taken care of business against their top rivals in recent
seasons. Over the past three years, they are an impres-
sive 11-1 against SEC Eastern Division rivals Georgia
(3-0), Florida (2-1) and Tennessee (3-0) and against in-
state rival Clemson (3-0). In fact, Carolina has won the
Palmetto State Championship four years in a row, the
longest winning streak over the Tigers since 1951-54.
AS GOOD AS IT GETS: The 2013 Gamecocks will
feature one of the game’s top players in junior defensive
end Jadeveon Clowney. Clowney, who is regarded
by most as the top defensive player in the country and a
likely top pick in the 2014 NFL Draft, was just the sec-
ond Gamecock to earn unanimous All-America honors
in 2012, joining George Rogers from his Heisman Tro-
phy season in 1980. Clowney was named the Hendricks
Award winner as the nation’s top defensive end, and the
All-America Player of the Year, presented by AT&T as
selected by the fans on ESPN.com. He finished sixth
in the Heisman race and was a finalist for the Nagurski
Trophy, Rotary Lombardi Award and the Bednarik Award
after being named the SEC Defensive Player of the Year
by the league’s coaches.
THE LEGACY CONTINUES: The Gamecocks roster
features four players whose fathers also donned the
Garnet & Black: junior defensive tackle Kelcy Quarles
and his father, Buddy (1984-87); sophomore defensive
linemen Gerald Dixon and Gerald Dixon Jr. and
their father, Gerald (1990-91); and redshirt freshman
Jordan Diggs and his father, Shed (1984-87).
RECRUITING SUCCESS: The Gamecocks had an-
other successful February signing day. Carolina has
put together nine-straight classes that rank among the
nation’s top-25, according to Rivals. Here are the recent
recruiting class rankings according to Rivals and Scout:
2002: 11th/18th 2008: 22nd/34th
2003: 8th/15th 2009: 12th/13th
2004: 35th/28th 2010: 24th/34th
2005: 23rd/20th 2011: 18th/11th
2006: 24th/33rd 2012: 19th/13th
2007: 6th/7th 2013: 16th/23rd
WORKING OVERTIME: The Gamecocks have played
just two overtime games in their history, both at Ten-
nessee. They dropped a 23-20 decision in Knoxville on
Sept. 27, 2003, then fell by a 27-24 score on Oct. 27,
2007, at Neyland Stadium.

CAROLINA FOOTBALL 2013 Notebook
ATTENTION BOOSTERS:
The University of South Carolina Office of Compliance Services is committed to a comprehensive compliance program that educates everyone
about the importance of adhering to NCAA, SEC, and institutional rules. We strive to create a “compliance conscience” within the University
and throughout the community.
The commitment to compliance ensures institutional control over the department of athletics and furthers the mission of the University of South
Carolina. The existence of a successful compliance program depends on the willingness of coaches, administrators, staff, student-athletes and
boosters to be cognizant of NCAA, SEC, and institutional rules.
WHAT IS COMPLIANCE?
At South Carolina, the Office of Compliance Services works within the department of athletics and the University to ensure South Carolina’s
compliance with all applicable rules. In doing so, the compliance staff is charged with the following tasks:
* EJuº+|||¸ +J||||¯||+|c|¯, ºc+º|º¯, ¯|+||, p|c¯pºº|¯, ¯|uJº||+|||º|º¯ +|J |cc¯|º|¯ +|cu| |CAA, SEC, +|J ||¯|||u||c|+| |u|º¯,

PROSPECTIVE STUDENT-ATHLETES
A prospective student-athlete (prospect) is a student who has:

Remember a prospect remains a prospect even after signing a National Letter of Intent with the University of South Carolina.
EXTRA BENEFITS
A recruiting inducement or extra benefit is any special arrangement by a University of South Carolina employee or booster to provide a pros-
pect, a student-athlete, or their relatives or friends a benefit not expressly authorized by the NCAA. Examples of impermissible extra benefits
include, but are not limited to:

WHAT ARE THE CONSEQUENCES?
South Carolina is responsible for the actions of its boosters. If a booster provides an impermissible benefit to a prospect, a student-athlete,
or their relatives or friends, South Carolina may be subject to penalties, even if the student-athlete has completed his or her eligibility. The
prospect or student-athlete who accepts an impermissible benefit jeopardizes his or her eligibility for intercollegiate competition. A booster who
provides an impermissible benefit may be disassociated from the University’s athletics program. Disassociation results in a loss of all benefits
or privileges offered by the department of athletics and may involve other penalties as appropriate.
In February 2012, the University of South Carolina appeared before the NCAA Committee on Infractions as a result of violations committed
by boosters of its athletics program. For details, please visit www.sc.edu/ncaaresponse to view the report from the Committee on Infractions
that was issued in April 2012.

2013 SOUTH CAROLINA FOOTBALL MEDIA GUIDE 14
CAROLINA FOOTBALL 2013 Outlook
One question that circulates around athletics is, “Is it
harder to build a championship program or to maintain
one?” Well, the South Carolina Gamecocks are about
to find out.
Coming off their best season in school history, a
campaign in which they won 11 games for the second-
straight year and produced their highest final national
ranking, the Gamecocks will try to build on that mo-
mentum in 2013. The ultimate goal of winning an SEC
Championship has barely eluded Carolina over the
past three seasons, but the squad will head into the fall
focused on reaching that lofty goal again this season.
As one of only four BCS schools, along with Alabama,
Oregon and Stanford, that has recorded 11-win seasons
in each of the last two campaigns, Carolina expects to
once again be the hunted, rather than the hunter.
Buoyed by the return of 36 lettermen, including a
dozen starters from a team that went 11-2, captured
the Outback Bowl and finished as high as No. 7 in the
Coaches’ poll, the Gamecocks, under ninth-year head
coach Steve Spurrier, have solidified the program to
a point where they are able to re-load, rather than re-
build. Led by the nation’s top defensive player and a
Heisman Trophy candidate in Jadeveon Clowney, Caro-
lina figures to be one of the favorites in the SEC East
and a preseason top-10 candidate again in 2013.
Once again, the road to Atlanta and the SEC Cham-
pionship Game is a difficult one. However, at least on
paper, this year’s schedule appears a bit more manage-
able, as it does not feature a gauntlet similar to the one
the Gamecocks faced in 2012 when they had contests
versus Georgia, at LSU and at Florida in consecutive
weeks, a stretch that proved to be Carolina’s undoing.
After a non-conference Thursday night opener
against neighboring North Carolina, the Gamecocks
will travel to Georgia for a key early SEC Eastern Di-
vision showdown in which Carolina will try to make
it four-straight over the Bulldogs. Much-improved
Vanderbilt visits Columbia the following week. After a
non-conference trip to UCF, the Gamecocks embark on
a stretch of six-consecutive SEC contests, beginning
with a home game against Kentucky. Carolina then has
three-straight road tilts - at Arkansas, Tennessee and
Missouri - that will test their mettle before wrapping up
the conference slate with back-to-back home battles
with Mississippi State and Florida, the latter of which
could decide the East.
The regular season ends with a pair of non-confer-
ence home games against in-state opponents on the
opposite ends of familiarity. The Gamecocks will meet
Coastal Carolina for the first time ever, then will try to
make it five-straight against Clemson when the teams
meet for the 111th time on November 30 in Columbia.
The Carolina offense officially returns six starters, in-
cluding four on the offensive line, from a squad that
averaged 31.5 points per game a season ago. Gone
are playmakers like Marcus Lattimore and Ace Sand-
ers, along with center T.J. Johnson who started every
game over the past four seasons, and solid contributors
in Justice Cunningham and D.L. Moore. Led by a pair
of experienced quarterbacks in Connor Shaw, the only
senior skill position player on the depth chart, and ju-
nior Dylan Thompson, the Gamecocks have as good of
tandem QB’s as anyone in the country. The Gamecocks
return 42 percent of their rushing yards, 96 percent of
their passing yards and 54 percent of their receiving
yards from a year ago. Along with the signal-caller, the
strength of this year’s offense could be in a still young,
but experienced offensive line.
QUARTERBACK:
Incumbent Con-
nor Shaw returns
for his senior
campaign. Shaw,
who owns a 17-3
record as a start-
ing quarterback,
including a 10-0
mark at home,
threw for just un-
der 2,000 yards
a season ago
while completing
two-thirds of his
passes, including
17 for touchdowns
against just seven interceptions. Shaw is also the
Gamecocks’ leading returning rusher after netting 435
yards with three scores a year ago. He sat out the spring
after undergoing surgery right after the bowl game on
his foot, but should be at full go when fall practices get
underway. With Shaw sidelined for the spring, junior
Dylan Thompson was handed the reins, something
he handled admirably in spot duty during the 2012
campaign. Thompson completed 52 percent of his
passes for 1,027 yards with 10 touchdowns and just
two INTs last year. He went the distance in the win at
Clemson and fired the game-winning touchdown strike
to Bruce Ellington in the final seconds of the Outback
Bowl against Michigan. Redshirt freshman Brendan
Nosovitch enters the fall third on the depth chart, but
impressed the coaches both during practices last fall
and in the spring. Nosovitch put together one of Penn-
sylvania’s most outstanding prep careers, passing for
nearly 13,000 yards. True freshman Connor Mitch got
his first taste of college ball this spring and responded
to the challenge. Mitch was one of two freshman to
graduate early and enroll at Carolina in January. At
6-3 and 219-pounds, he is blessed with excellent size
and was highly regarded coming out of Raleigh, N.C.
Newcomer Perry Orth caught the coaches’ eyes in the
spring as well, while sophomore walk-on Austin Hails
provides depth.
TAILBACK: The Gamecocks will have a new look at
tailback following the departure of Marcus Lattimore
and Kenny Miles, who combined to rush 870 times
for over 4,000 yards during their Carolina careers.
While running backs coach Everette Sands is excited
about the overall talent in the backfield, he viewed the
spring as a time for separation and was looking for
someone to step up and fill those big shoes vacated
by Lattimore. Ideally, Sands would like his number one
tailback to have 60-65 percent of the carries, with the
number two back getting the next 30-35 percent. The
first three on the depth chart entering the fall are all
sophomores. Mike Davis gained some valuable ex-
perience and showed some flashes last fall as a true
freshman and came out of the spring holding a slight
lead as the front-runner to work with the first unit. He
averaged 5.3 yards per carry including a 50-yard burst
against UAB. Brandon Wilds returns after sitting out
the 2012 campaign as a redshirt and looked faster and
stronger in the spring. Wilds has proven himself at
this level, as he logged three 100-yard rushing games
as a true freshman in 2011. A patient runner, Wilds is
also considered the best blocker of the group. Redshirt
freshman Kendric Salley was healthy for the first time
and had an opportunity to put his talents on display this
spring. He has the physical tools the coaches are look-
ing for but also has the biggest learning curve. Shon
Carson has missed most of his first two seasons for
the Garnet & Black with injuries and did not participate
in the spring while serving as a member of the Carolina
baseball team. When he’s been healthy, the coaches like
his ability. Two fall newcomers have the coaches ex-
cited as well. David Williams, who hails from Phila-
delphia, Pa., was a highly sought-after recruit, while
Jamari Smith from Jacksonville,Fla. flew a bit more
under the radar. Both are talented backs with Williams, a
6-1, 200-pounder, considered to be a little further along
development-wise and could get a long look during the
preseason camp. Walk-on Devin Potter adds depth.

CAROLINA FOOTBALL 2013 Outlook
FULLBACK: The Gamecocks had a limited number of
two-back sets which incorporated a fullback in 2012
and that will likely not change in 2013. Only walk-ons
dot the roster for this role, which primarily has been as
a blocker for the tailback. Junior Connor McLaurin,
who earned his first letter last fall primarily due to his
work on special teams, figures to be the first fullback
called upon. Junior Jordan Diaz moved over from
linebacker in the spring and will compete for the po-
sition, along with sophomore Ty Sutherland. Garri-
son Gist joined the fold in the spring. Gist had made
a name for himself in weightlifting competitions prior to
returning to the gridiron.
WIDE RECEIVER: Youth will be served at the wide
receiver position, as the unit does not feature a senior.
Wide receivers coach Steve Spurrier Jr. will have to find
a replacement for his top performer, Ace Sanders, who
left after an MVP performance in the Outback Bowl and
with a year of eligibility remaining to embark on a pro
career. But Spurrier Jr. is accustomed to replacing some
special receivers who have donned the Garnet & Black
in recent years, including Sidney Rice, Kenny McKin-
ley and Alshon Jeffery, all of whom earned spots on
NFL rosters. The leader of this year’s group figures to
be one of college athletics top two-sport standouts in
junior Bruce Ellington. Ellington had his best season
on the gridiron last fall, leading the team with 600 re-
ceiving yards on 40 catches with seven touchdowns. He
spent the first three
months of the cal-
endar year serv-
ing as the starting
point guard on
Frank Martin’s
men’s basketball
team. Ellington
enters the fall
joined on the first
unit by a pair of
junior classmates
in Damiere Byrd
and Nick Jones.
Byrd, who also is a two-sport standout at South Caro-
lina as a member of the track & field team, is the fast-
est player on the roster and the Gamecocks’ best deep
threat. He averaged 26.1 yards on 14 catches a sea-
son ago. While Byrd seems to make the big splashes,
Jones flies more under the radar. He logged a dozen
catches last season, but eight of those came in the fi-
nal three games. Interestingly, none of the Gamecocks’
three projected starters stand taller than 5-9. After those
three, the rest of the receiving corps is talented but vir-
tually untested. Sophomore Shaq Roland may have
the most raw talent of the group and is listed as a “co-
starter” entering the fall, along with Byrd. The state’s
2011 “Mr. Football” came in with all kinds of creden-
tials but saw limited action as a true freshman as he
made the adjustment to the collegiate level. Redshirt
sophomores Shamier Jeffery and K.J. Brent are
both in their third year in the program and should be
ready to challenge for a spot in the rotation. The light
seemed to come on the spring for Jeffery, who is the
younger brother of Alshon Jeffery, the former Game-
cock All-American. Kwinton Smith and Jody Fuller
were redshirted as freshman a year ago, and have an
opportunity to prove that they are ready to contribute as
well in the fall. Brent and Smith both are listed at 6-4,
giving Coach Spurrier Jr. some options when he wants
to go with some taller receivers. Walk-ons Tevin Brad-
shaw, Dwyane Duckett, Matthew Harvey, David
Wilkins, and Kane Whitehurst add depth. Bradshaw
and Whitehurst are eligible this fall for the first time
after sitting out a year as a transfer, while Duckett is
a local product from Columbia’s Spring Valley High
School. Harvey brings exceptional height at 6-8, but is
raw. Wilkins is a former track member at South Caro-
lina who played cornerback last fall in his first work on
the college gridiron. Whitehurst is the cousin of current
NFL and former Clemson quarterback Charlie White-
hurst. He spent a year at Arkansas before transferring
to Carolina. Walk-on Carlton Heard impressed the
coaches in the spring, but will not be eligible this fall
after transferring from Gardner-Webb.
TIGHT END: Despite the departure of Justice Cun-
ningham, “Mr. Irrelevant” in the 2013 NFL Draft, the
Gamecocks figure to be well-stocked at the tight end
position again this season. While Cunningham proved
to be an excellent blocker and a better receiver than
most gave him credit for, the returning trio of schol-
arship players all have the size and speed to present
difficult matches for a defense. Rory “Busta” An-
derson, a 6-5, 242-pound target, has been a big-play
performer during his first two campaigns, logging eight
touchdowns on 22 catches in 26 contests. Jerell Ad-
ams, who checks in a 6-6 and 237-pounds, earned a
spot on the SEC All-Freshman team a year ago. Drew
Owens, a 6-6, 244-pound sophomore, figures to work
his way into the mix as well, after a knee injury suffered
in the 2012 Garnet & Black Spring Game limited his
opportunities last fall. Walk-on Jeff Homad returns to
add depth.
OFFENSIVE LINE: Relatively young but experienced
would be the best way to describe the returners on
the offensive line. The Gamecocks lost a good one in
center T.J. Johnson, who started every game over the
past four seasons, but return everyone else who saw
any significant action during the 2012 campaign. The
only senior of the group is right tackle Ronald Pat-
rick, who started every game a year ago. Patrick is one
of just four scholarship seniors on this year’s squad and
joins Connor Shaw as the only two on the offensive side
of the ball. A pair of junior starters return on the left
side of the line and figure to man those positions again
this year. Tackle Corey Robinson, the biggest of the
linemen at 6-8, 341, and guard A.J. Cann, a two-year
starter who is considered an all-conference candidate,
should be even more comfortable working side-by-

side this season.
Robinson came
into his own last
season while Cann
has taken on more
of a leadership role
both on and off the
field. Sophomore
Brandon Shell
took over the right
tackle duties last
season and earned
a spot on the SEC
A l l - F r e s h ma n
team. The coaches
feel he as a tre-
mendous upside.
The only newcomer on the starting five entering the fall
figures to be redshirt freshman center Cody Waldrop.
The coaches like his potential and he could become
a fixture for years to come. Junior Cody Gibson has
made six starts in his career and could push either Rob-
inson or Shell for playing time at one of the tackle posi-
tions, giving Carolina quality depth at that spot. Another
tackle, junior Mike Matulis, has seen considerable
playing time during his Gamecock career, including
10 starts, but missed the spring while rehabbing from
shoulder surgery. He has yet to use a redshirt, so that’s
a possibility for him if he needs more time to rehab the
shoulders. The only sophomore reserve of the group,
Will Sport, saw action on special teams last season
and is a darkhorse candidate to see playing time at an
inside position. A trio of redshirt freshman, six-foot
nine-inch tackle Mason Zandi and the twins, guard
Brock Stadnik and center Clayton Stadnik, used
the year to get bigger and stronger in the weight room.
They are hoping that extra work paid off and can carry
over to the field of play. Newcomer D.J. Park gradu-
ated from high school early and got a jump start on the
other incoming freshman class this spring, which also
includes center Alan Knott, guard Bryce King and
tackles Na’Ty Rodgers and J.P. Vonashek.
The Carolina defense returns five starters from a unit
that ranked in the top 25 in the four major statistical cat-
egories a year ago - scoring defense (13th), rushing de-
fense (17th), passing defense (21st) and total defense
(11th). The Gamecocks will have a completely different
look to their linebacking corps, as Reginald Bowens,
DeVonte Holloman, Damario Jeffery, Quin Smith and
Shaq Wilson, who combined for 99 career starts, all
moved on following graduation. Carolina will also be
without starters Byron Jerideau and Devin Taylor along
the defensive line, and standout safety D.J. Swearinger.
However, the cupboard is certainly not bare. Any unit
that can feature 6-6, 272-pound defensive end Jade-
veon Clowney, a unanimous All-American and legiti-
mate candidate for every post-season award in 2013,
including the Heisman Trophy, is one to be reckoned
with. Clowney will be joined up front by Kelcy Quarles
and Chaz Sutton. The secondary features three return-
ing starters in cornerbacks Victor Hampton and Jimmy
Legree and safety Brison Williams. Defensive coordina-
tor Lorenzo Ward is confident the talent level is there
and the experience will come, but the goal will be to
develop some leaders among the unit, which started in
the spring.
DEFENSIVE LINE: The only coaching change for the
Gamecocks this past offseason came on the defensive
line where former North Carolina assistant Deke Adams
was brought in to replace longtime assistant Brad Law-
ing. Adams must have felt like he won the lottery when
he took the job knowing he would be working with the
nation’s top defensive player in Jadeveon Clowney.
Clowney, a 6-6, 274-pound junior earned unanimous
All-America honors last season, just the second Game-
cock in history to do so, joining Heisman Trophy winner
George Rogers. Clowney, a Heisman contender in his
own right after finishing sixth in the balloting in 2012,
was the Ted Hendricks Award winner as the nation’s top
defensive end, and was a finalist for the Nagurski, Lom-
bardi and Bednarik Awards after setting school records
with 13.0 sacks and 23.5 tackles for loss. But Clowney
isn’t the only standout on the defensive line. Junior
Kelcy Quarles
has started 17
games over the
past two seasons
and figures to be
a stalwart in the
middle of the de-
fensive line again
in 2013. The only
scholarship senior
of the unit is de-
fensive end Chaz
Sutton. Sutton, a
6-5, 263-pounder,
has waited patient-
ly for his turn in
the starting lineup,
but has been very productive as a backup, as witnessed
by his 5.0 sacks last season. Junior J.T. Surratt, who
also has been waiting his turn, figures to open the fall as
the probable starter at the defensive tackle position next
to Quarles. While those penciled in to start have plenty
of experience, the spring will be an opportunity for sev-
eral younger players to show they are ready for the big
stage. Three sophomores will challenge for time at the
tackle position, including Gerald Dixon Jr., Phillip
Dukes and Deon Green. Dixon Jr. saw the most time
last season and is listed as a co-starter with Surratt,
Dukes was considered the “Most Improved” defensive
lineman in the spring, while Green was finally healthy
after being hampered by injuries throughout his Caro-
lina career. A pair of sophomores in Gerald Dixon and
Mason Harris, along with redshirt freshman Darius
English, will compete for the backup roles at defensive
end. Walk-on defensive end, Michael Washington
adds depth. The newcomers include Devan’te Cov-
ington, Kelsey Griffin, Gerald Turner and Devin
Washington. Covington, Turner and Washington are
ends, while Griffin will work in the middle of the line.
LINEBACKER: Maybe the biggest question mark en-
tering the fall will be how the Gamecocks fill the line-
backing position. The veteran quartet of Shaq Wilson,
Reginald Bowens, Damario Jeffery and Quin Smith took
nearly ever snap last season, leaving a thin and untested
group that went through spring drills. The only upper-
classman on the roster is junior walk-on Kyle Morini,
and he just joined the squad in the spring. A pair of
second-year players in sophomore Kaiwan Lewis

and redshirt freshman T.J. Holloman will compete for
the “Mike” position. Lewis lettered last season primarily
for his work on special teams and was considered the
“Most Improved” in the spring. Holloman is very intel-
ligent and is able to grasp the concepts quickly. Sopho-
more Cedrick Cooper was sidelined in the spring with
a knee injury, but figures to figure prominently for duty
at the Will position. Sophomore Marcquis Roberts
and redshirt freshman Kelvin Rainey took the bulk
of the snaps at that position in the spring. Roberts has
been injured throughout his stint at Carolina, while
Rainey made the transition from his tight end position
last year. A quartet of incoming freshmen will have an
opportunity to make an immediate impact this fall. That
foursome includes Larenz Bryant, David John-
son, Skai Moore and Jonathan Walton. Walk-on
James King adds depth.
SPUR: One of the
most important
positions of the
Gamecock defense
is the Spur, a hy-
brid linebacker/
safety spot that
was manned the
last two seasons
by Antonio Al-
len and DeVonte
Holloman, both
of whom were
NFL Draft picks.
Junior Sharrod
Golightly came
out of the spring
holding down the
starting role, but he will be hard-pressed to hold off
redshirt freshman Jordan Diggs for that duty this fall.
Golightly has the benefit of experience, but Diggs has
impressed the coaches in his short time on the Colum-
bia campus. Newcomer Mohamed Camara will be
counted on to provide help down the line.
CORNERBACK: The Gamecocks have both of their
starting cornerbacks returning, as Victor Hampton
made a dozen starts last season and Jimmy Legree
earned eight starting assignments. Hampton, a junior, is
the most physical corner on the squad and considered
the best cover man. One who plays with a lot of emo-
tion, Hampton
logged 40 tackles
and one intercep-
tion last season.
Legree, a senior,
has played both
corner and safety
during his Game-
cock career. He
tied for the team
lead with three
interceptions last
season while fig-
uring in on 44
stops. The coach-
ing staff is hopeful
that junior college
transfer Ronnie Martin can work his way into the ro-
tation. Martin originally signed with the Gamecocks in
2011, finally made his way onto the Columbia campus
in January, but missed most of the spring drills while
nursing a hamstring injury. He also missed much of last
season with a hamstring issue to his other leg. Walk-on
Sidney Rhodes, who developed into a solid contribu-
tor on special teams, has worked his way into the con-
versation for additional playing time. Athletic sopho-
more Ahmad Christian gained some much needed
experience last fall as a redshirt freshman, but earned a
spot on the Carolina baseball team in the spring, which
kept him off the gridiron. Rico McWilliams caught
the coaches’ eyes early last fall before suffering a
season-ending knee injury. He sat out the entire spring
while rehabbing the knee and will be a factor this fall if
he has regained full health. Freshmen Pharoh Cooper
and Ali Groves will join the fold in the fall and will
have an opportunity to contribute immediately.
SAFETY: Another position with no seniors on the pre-
season depth chart is safety. Replacing D.J. Swearing-
er’s leadership, ability and tenacity will be difficult, but
several young players will get an opportunity to step up
and fill the void. Junior Brison Williams is the odds
on favorite to take over those leadership duties vacated
by Swearinger as the returning starter at strong safety.
He finished sixth on the team in tackles last season
with 52 while starting a dozen games. Junior Kadetrix
“JJ” Marcus is penciled in as the starter at free safety,
but will face stiff competition in the fall if sophomore
T.J. Gurley, a member of the SEC All-Freshman team,
is able to bounce back from his season-ending knee
injury. A trio of redshirt freshmen, including Chaz El-
der, Kyle Fleetwood and Chris Moody, all had the
opportunity to showcase their talents in the spring and
will be counted on to provide some much-needed depth
this fall. Incoming freshman Jasper Sasser joins the
squad in the fall, while walk-on Garrett Shank donned
the Garnet & Black for the first time in the spring.

CAROLINA FOOTBALL 2013 Outlook
Special teams coach Joe Robinson returns for his
second season with the Gamecocks. He will be chal-
lenged this fall to find replacements for kicker Adam
Yates, deep snapper Walker Inabinet, holder Seth
Strickland and punt returner extraordinare Ace Sanders.
The Gamecocks will be looking for improvement in all
facets, including the punt team and kickoff return unit
that feature specialists Tyler Hull and Bruce Ellington,
respectively.
PLACEKICKER: For the third straight season, Caro-
lina goes into the fall looking for a new placekicker.
Sophomore walk-on Landon Ard and redshirt fresh-
man Nick St. Germain, a scholarship player, battled
it out all spring for both the field goal/PAT and kickoff
duties. Ard gained some experience last season as he
handled the kickoff duties early in the season before
giving way to a more consistent Adam Yates. Ard came
out of the spring as the leader in the clubhouse, but St.
Germain will continue to put the pressure on should
Ard falter. Walk-on Caleb Kelly joined the squad in
the spring, while Elliott Fry and Max Huggins will
walk-on in the fall.
PUNTER: Junior Tyler Hull arrived on campus after
fall camp opened in 2012 and quickly established him-
self as the team’s top punter, a role he held all season.
He seemed to get more comfortable as the season pro-
gressed and is expected to improve on his average this
season. Junior Patrick Fish will once again provide
the primary competition. While Hull was considered the
“Most Improved” punter during the spring competition,
Fish was recognized as the Jim Carlen Special Teams
Player of the Spring. Newcomer Andrew Komornik
joined the competition in the spring, while Elliott Fry
and Max Huggins will get into the mix in the fall.
LONG SNAPPER: Coach Robinson continues to
search for a suitable replacement for the long snapping
duties, which were in the capable hands of Walker In-
abinet for the last three seasons. Inabinet is believed
to hold the school record for most games dressed, as
he dressed for every contest over the past five years.
Sophomore Coleman Harley and junior Ryland
Culbertson return to the squad and figure to battle
it out, while newcomer Drew Williams will join the
competition in the fall. The final decision on who earns
this unsung position may not be decided until just be-
fore the season opener.
KICK RETURNER: Junior Bruce Ellington has
handled the bulk of the kickoff returns in each of the
past two seasons and figures to have the first opportu-
nity again in 2013, although his importance as a wide
receiver may sway the coaching staff to look another
direction. Damiere Byrd certainly has the speed nec-
essary to take one the distance, while Victor Hampton
has shown an ability to succeed in the return game as
well.
PUNT RETURNER: The Gamecocks will be hard-
pressed to replace one of the nation’s best in electric
Ace Sanders. Sanders earned co-SEC Special Teams
Player of the Year accolades after averaging over 15
yards a return while taking it to the house against both
Georgia and Michigan. Victor Hampton gets the first
shot at taking over for Sanders and Bruce Ellington
could be a viable option as well. Incoming freshman
Pharoh Cooper had an outstanding prep career as
a returner and could get a long look when fall camp
opens.
HOLDER: Reserve punter Patrick Fish served as
the backup for Seth Strickland last season and was the
number one option in that role during the spring.

CAROLINA FOOTBALL Head Coach Steve Spurrier
Steve Spurrier, who has coached a national championship
team, won seven Southeastern Conference titles, garnered nine
conference Coach of the Year awards, and won 73 percent of the
college games in which he has coached, is beginning his ninth
season as head coach at the University of South Carolina. Spur-
rier was introduced as Carolina’s 32nd head coach on Nov. 23,
2004.
Coach Spurrier has compiled a 208-77-2 (.728) won-loss
record in 23 seasons as a major college head coach, including
a 66-37 mark (.641) at Carolina. He became the 71st collegiate
coach (all divisions) and the 22nd in Division I to record 200
career victories when he defeated UAB on Sept. 15, 2012 and
logged his 250th all-time coaching win against Georgia on Oc-
tober 6, 2012.
Coach Spurrier surpassed Rex Enright’s school record for wins
when he logged number 65 at Clemson in the 2012 season finale.
In doing so, he joined the great Bear Bryant as the only coaches
to boast the most coaching victories at two different SEC schools.
He led the Duke Blue Devils to the 1989 Atlantic Coast Confer-
ence championship before returning to his alma mater, the Uni-
versity of Florida, as head coach in 1990. During his 12 seasons
with the Gators, Spurrier’s teams won seven Southeastern Confer-
ence championships, one national title and finished ranked in the
nation’s top 10 nine times. His record at Florida was an amazing
122-27-1 (.817). Spurrier, who won the 1966 Heisman Trophy
as a quarterback for the Gators, was also head coach of the NFL’s
Washington Redskins (2002-03). He returned to the college ranks
in 2005 after a one-year absence from the sidelines.
In his first season at South Carolina, Coach Spurrier led the
Gamecocks to a 7-5 record and a second-place finish in the SEC
Eastern Division. In doing so, he posted a five-game winning
streak, the 15th-consecutive year in which he has had a five-game
winning streak, something no other coach in college history has
accomplished. He was honored as the SEC Coach of the Year
by the Associated Press after leading the
Gamecocks to a school-record five straight
SEC wins, their first win ever at Tennessee
and their first win over Florida since the
1930s.
He came back with an 8-5 record in
2006, just the ninth time in school history
that the Gamecocks posted eight or more
wins in a season. The season was capped
with a Liberty Bowl win over C-USA cham-
pion Houston.
In his third season with the Garnet &
Black, Spurrier’s squad raced out to a 6-1
record and moved as high as No. 6 in the
BCS rankings, before finishing the cam-
paign with a 6-6 record. With 21 wins, he
set the Carolina record for coaching victo-
ries after three seasons at the helm.
With a 7-6 record in 2008, Carolina returned to a New Year’s
Day bowl game for the first time since the 2001 season. The
Gamecocks followed that up with another 7-6 record in 2009,
their sixth consecutive non-losing season, the longest stretch in
school history since 1928-34. The 2009 season included a win
over No. 4 Ole Miss, only the second time in school history that
Carolina had defeated a top-five team.
His 2010 Gamecock squad posted several milestones en route
to a 9-5 season, the biggest of which was the school’s first SEC
Eastern Division title and first appearance in the SEC Champion-
ship. The Gamecocks also defeated the nation’s No. 1 team, Ala-
bama, for the first time in school history, and finished the season
ranked 22nd in both major national polls. He was named SEC
Coach of the Year for the seventh time, his ninth overall Coach
of the Year honor.
The Gamecocks continued to make history in 2011, winning
a school record 11 games and finishing in the the top-10 in the
final A.P. poll for the first time. The squad also won a school re-
cord six SEC games and defeated each of their Eastern Division
rivals in the same season for the first time. Carolina capped the
regular season with a win over Clemson, its third-straight over
its Palmetto State rival, the first time that has been accomplished
since 1968-70, then defeated Nebraska in the Capital One Bowl
by a convincing 30-13 margin.
The 2012 season was another success, as the Gamecocks
rolled up a school-record 11 wins for the second-straight season
and logged double-digits in wins for just the third time in school
history, capped off by a 33-28 win over Michigan in the Outback
Bowl. They defeated four teams that finished among the nation’s
top-25 in Georgia, Clemson, Vanderbilt and Michigan. The
Gamecocks defeated in-state rival Clemson for a fourth-straight
year, the first time that had been accomplished since the 1950s.
Over the past three seasons, the Gamecocks are 11-1 against
their top rivals, Georgia, Florida, Tennessee and Clemson.

2013 SOUTH CAROLINA FOOTBALL MEDIA GUIDE 22
CAROLINA FOOTBALL Spurrier Career Highlights
Recipient of the 1966 Heisman Trophy.
Two-time All-American at the University of Florida.
Inducted into the National Football Foundation and
College Football Hall of Fame as a player in 1986.
Is the winningest coach at two SEC schools (Florida
and South Carolina), joining Paul “Bear” Bryant (Ken-
tucky and Alabama) as the only coaches with that dis-
tinction.
Became the first person to have both won a Heisman
Trophy and to have coached a Heisman Trophy winner
(Danny Wuerffel).
In 2006, he was one of the first four inductees into
the Gator Ring of Honor alongside Danny Wuerffel, Em-
mitt Smith and Jack Youngblood.
In 2011, he was one of three Heisman Trophy win-
ners at Florida to have a statue erected in his honor.
On May 30, 2013, he was recognized by Governor
Rick Scott as part of the 2013 class of Great Floridians,
a prestigious group of men and women who have made
significant contributions to the progress and prosperity
of Florida.
Compiled a 122-27-1 record at Florida from 1990-
2001, the most wins for a Gator coach in school history
and a winning percentage (.817) that ranked among the
top three in SEC history.
His 122 victories at Florida from 1990-2001 rank as
the highest win total for a coach in his first 12 years at a
school in major college history.
Coached Florida to two National Championship
Game appearances (1995 and 1996), claiming the 1996
national title.
The only coach in SEC history to lead a squad to six
straight seasons of 10 or more wins (1993-1998).
His Gator teams appeared in the weekly polls 202
of a possible 203 weeks, including each of his last 202
consecutive weeks. From 1990-2001, the Gators were
ranked number one in the polls 29 times, appeared in
the top five for 117 weeks and among the nation’s top
10 for 179 weeks.
The only coach in SEC history and one of only three
coaches in major college history to lead a school to 12
consecutive seasons (1990-2001) of nine-plus wins.
One of only five coaches in major college history to
have his team ranked in the final Top 15 Poll in each of
12 consecutive seasons (1990-2001).
Achieved 100 career victories at Florida in a faster
time period (10th season, eighth game) than any major
college coach at a school in the 20th century.
His UF squads finished in the Top 10 of the polls
nine times and six times in the final top five, totals that
both ranked second best in the nation over his 12 sea-
sons (1990-2001). UF’s average poll ranking of 6.5 in
the decade of the 1990s was second best in the nation.
One of only five major college coaches in history
and only the second in SEC history to lead a school to
100 wins during a decade (102-22-1 from 1990-99).
He (1993-96) and the legendary Paul “Bear” Bryant
are the only coaches in SEC history to win as many as
four straight league championships.
The only coach in SEC history to win eight confer-
ence games in a season four straight years (1993-96).
His 73 league wins in the 1990s represented the
most SEC wins during a decade in conference history.
The only coach in SEC history to lead a school to
nine consecutive January bowl game appearances.
His six outright SEC titles (‘91, ‘93, ‘94, ‘95, ‘96,
2000) ranks as the second-best total in SEC history,
trailing only Bear Bryant’s 11.
Prior to his arrival in 1990, Florida had never won
more than nine games in a season. In 12 seasons at the
helm he lead the Gators to nine seasons of 10+ wins.
Has been selected as a finalist for the Paul “Bear”
Bryant National Coach of the Year Award four times
(1990, 1991, 1995, 1996).
In his 23 years as a collegiate head coach he led his
squad to the best record in the conference standings
eight times (Duke in 1989 and Florida in 1990, 1991,
1993, 1994, 1995 1996 and 2000).
Won his 100th game at Florida in 1999 in just his
120th overall game (100-19-1 record), a total that
ranked among the six fewest games to reach that level
at a major college school in the 20th century.
Has been named his conference’s Coach of the Year
nine times (1988 and 1989 in the ACC with Duke, in
1990, 1991, 1994, 1995 and 1996 in the SEC with
Florida and in 2005 and 2010 at South Carolina).
Has led teams to 19 bowl games, including each of
his last 11 years (1991-2001) at Florida and in 18 of
his last 19 seasons overall. Of his 19 bowl teams, 13
played in January.

CAROLINA FOOTBALL Assistant Coaches
Deke Adams, the newest Gamecock coach, was named
defensive line coach at the University of South Carolina
on January 22, 2013.
Adams spent the 2012 season as Larry Fedora’s de-
fensive line coach at North Carolina after serving the
three previous seasons in the same capacity for Fedora
at Southern Miss. In his one-year stint in Chapel Hill,
Adams had the opportunity to coach Sylvester Williams,
a first round selection in the 2013 NFL Draft.
In his final year in Hattiesburg, Adams, a former
Southern Miss letterman, was in charge of a front four
that allowed just 112.6 rushing yards per game in 2011,
22nd in the country. Southern Miss won the Conference
USA title and went on to a 12-win season after a Hawaii
Bowl win over Nevada.
Among the players he mentored at USM were current
CFL player Cordarro Law and 2013 NFL draft pick Jamie
Collins.
In his first year at Southern Miss, Adams inherited a
young, but seasoned and talented group of players that
progressively improved as the season continued. The
Golden Eagle defense finished the year No. 18 nationally
in sacks and No. 24 in tackles for loss. The year prior
to his arrival, Southern Miss was No. 93 and No. 68,
respectively, in those two defensive categories.
Adams came to Southern Miss after spending the
previous year as linebackers coach and coordinator of
player development at Louisiana-Monroe. At ULM, he
coached current NFL player Cardia Jackson. Prior to his
stint at ULM, he worked for two sea-
sons at North Carolina A&T.
During his first season at North Carolina A&T, Adams
stepped into the role of defensive coordinator two games
into the season on an interim basis. He was given the
job on a permanent basis following that first season. He
coached the defensive line during his first year in 2006
and had responsibility for the linebackers in 2007.
Adams spent four years (2002-05) at Ouachita Baptist
University in Arkansas before his stint at North Carolina
A&T. In 2005, he served as Ouachita Baptist’s defensive
coordinator and was responsible for the defensive line.
Adams began his coaching career in 1997 as the de-
fensive line coach at Jacksonville State. After spending
one season at Jacksonville State, he coached at Pearl
River Community College, where he first served as the
linebackers coach and later was named co-defensive
coordinator and secondary coach. In 2001 he became
the defensive coordinator and continued his duties as
recruiting coordinator.
Adams was a four-year member of the Southern Miss
Dean’s List during his time as a student-athlete and a
three-year letterwinner for the Golden Eagle “Nasty
Bunch” defense from 1991-94. During his career at line-
backer, Adams tallied 76 tackles, 5 tackles for loss, one
sack and one interception for 15 yards.
He is married to the former Alexis Hall, a member of
the 1,000-point club and four-year letterwinner for the
Southern Miss women’s basketball team. The couple has
two boys, Jaylen and Jordyn.

Kirk Botkin begins his second year with the Game-
cocks. He was tabbed as South Carolina’s linebackers
and Spurs coach on January 13, 2012.
Bokin had a veteran group to work with in 2012, as
his top five players, linebackers Shaq Wilson, Reginald
Bowens, Damario Jeffery and Quin Smith, along with
starting Spur DeVonte Holloman, were all seniors.
Botkin returned to the collegiate coaching ranks after
spending the last two seasons coaching high school
football at Texas High School in Texarkana, Texas. He
spent the 2008 and ‘09 seasons coaching the defensive
ends and special teams at his alma mater, Arkansas,
under Bobby Petrino, including one season alongside
Gamecocks’ defensive coordinator Lorenzo Ward.
Botkin was the Razorbacks’ first All-SEC performer as
a tight end in 1992 and ‘93, and served as a captain dur-
ing his senior season. He graduated with a bachelor’s de-
gree in education. He was later named to the Razorbacks’
All-Decade team for the 1990s after logging 87 career
receptions for 819 yards and five touchdowns.
Botkin spent four years in the NFL, including playing
for Bill Parcells in New England (1994), Jim Mora in New
Orleans (1994-95) and Bill Cowher in Pittsburgh (1996-
97). After an injury ended his career, he began his coach-
ing career at his hometown high school of Robert E. Lee
High in Baytown, Texas in 1999. In 2000 he worked as a
graduate assistant at Rice University in Houston.
From 2001-05, Botkin served as an assistant coach at
Jacksonville State University, first as a tight ends/offen-
sive tackles coach, then as an outside linebackers/spe-
cial teams coach. While at JSU, the squad won the Ohio
Valley Conference in 2003 and ‘04 and coached seven
all-conference performers.
Between stints at Jacksonville State and Arkansas,
Botkin spent two seasons coaching linebackers and
special teams at Louisiana-Monroe. In 2007, he helped
the Warhawks record their first non-losing season in 14
years, including a win at Alabama.
Botkin and his wife, the former Rebecca Holloway,
have three children, Lane, Ty and Brynn.

CAROLINA FOOTBALL Assistant Coaches
Former Southern Miss assistant Grady Brown begins
his second year in Columbia, after joining the Carolina
coaching staff on February 3, 2012. Brown serves as
the Gamecocks’ secondary coach and assistant special
teams coordinator.
During his first season with the Gamecocks, Brown
mentored senior safety D.J. Swearinger, who captured
second-team All-SEC honors. Safety T.J. Gurley earned
a spot on the SEC All-Freshman squad despite missing
part of the season with a knee injury.
Brown spent the previous two seasons as the Golden
Eagles’ cornerbacks coach. During the 2011 campaign,
Southern Miss was No. 7 nationally in pass efficiency
defense (108.47 rating) and set an NCAA record for in-
terceptions returned for touchdowns with eight. As a unit,
the Golden Eagle defense finished the season as a Top-
30 defense.
In his first year at USM, Brown, who was hired just pri-
or to the start of fall camp, quickly instilled a toughness
and physicality into his corners that amounted to a pair
of freshman being selected to the All-Freshman squad.
Brown came to Southern Miss after spending the pre-
vious year and a half working in the strength & condition-
ing area and assisting as a defensive intern at LSU, where
he helped tutor NFL third-round pick Chad Jones and
free agent signees Danny McCray and Chris Hawkins.
Brown went to LSU after working a season at Texas
Southern where he was the safeties coach and also the
community outreach liaison.
His arrival to TSU came after a six-year stint as the
secondary coach at Alabama State. While at ASU, the
Hornets’ defense finished ranked in the Top 10 nation-
ally in six team categories and once for an individual.
In his first season at ASU, Brown mentored Antoine Hill
who finished third in the country in interceptions with 10,
while the squad ranked seventh in both turnovers gained
and interceptions. The team won the Southwestern Ath-
letic Conference crown in 2003 and then the league’s
overall title in 2004, in which his defensive squad ranked
seventh in turnovers gained and ninth in rushing defense.
During his time at ASU, Brown served two NFL Minor-
ity Coaching Internships, first with the Seattle Seahawks
in 2004, then with the Kansas City Chiefs in 2007. He
also served as the defensive coordinator and linebacker
coach for the Magnolia All-Star Football Classic in 2005.
Brown began his coaching career in 2000 at his alma
mater, Alabama A&M, before being promoted to the rank
of a full-time assistant coach for the 2001 campaign.
After completing his high school career at Wenonah
High School in Birmingham, Ala., Brown played defen-
sive back for Alabama A&M from 1995 through 1998.
After his senior season, he played one season with the
Tennessee Valley Vipers in the Arena Football League.
Brown graduated from Alabama A&M with a degree in
mathematics education in 2000. He is married to Rashi-
dah Brown.

Shawn Elliott begins his fourth season in Columbia.
The Camden, S.C. native officially joined Coach Spur-
rier’s staff on Jan. 3, 2010. He was given the title of co-
offensive coordinator in 2012 after serving as the run-
ning game coordinator for the previous two campaigns.
He continues to mentor the Gamecocks’ offensive line.
In 2012, the Gamecocks finished fifth in the SEC in
scoring, averaging 31.5 points per game, while churning
out 377 yards of offense per contest, using a balanced
attack of rushing (139 ypg) and passing (238 ypg). Se-
nior center T.J. Johnson garnered second-team All-SEC
accolades, while tackle Brandon Shell was recognized on
the All-Freshman squad.
The former Appalachian State offensive line coach’s
first Gamecock squad showed a tremendous turnaround
upon his arrival, especially in the running game, as
Carolina averaged 154.4 rushing yards per game to
rank eighth in the SEC after finishing last in the league
each of the previous three years. His implementation of a
new blocking scheme also helped running back Marcus
Lattimore set the Carolina freshman record for rush-
ing yards and the all-time single-season touchdown
record for the Gamecocks while earning unanimous
National Freshman of the Year accolades. Elliott helped
convert former walk-on Garrett Chisolm into a second-
team All-SEC selection.
The Gamecock offense showed tremendous balance in
2011. The squad averaged 192 yards on the ground and
182 yards through the air. Carolina had a 100-yard rush-
er in eight of the 13 games. Offensive
tackle Rokevious Watkins earned All-
SEC honors in his final campaign.
Prior to his arrival in Columbia, Elliott had coached
his entire career at Appalachian State, where he helped
the Mountaineers to three straight national champion-
ships (2005-07). After earning his bachelor’s degree
from Appalachian State in 1996, Elliott worked for two
seasons as a defensive assistant, then two seasons as
the tight ends coach before taking over the offensive line
in 2001. Over his final nine seasons as the offensive line
coach at Appalachian State, Elliott’s players earned All-
America distinction on 12 occasions. From 2005-07,
he coached three-consecutive SoCon Jacobs Blocking
Trophy recipients.
Elliott was the first player in Appalachian State his-
tory to appear in the NCAA Division I-AA playoffs four
separate seasons. He was a four-year letterwinner for the
Black and Gold, helping the squad to two Southern Con-
ference titles. He was a co-captain on the Mountaineers’
1995 squad that finished 12-1 while earning all-league
distinction as a defensive end. In his four seasons as a
player, the Mountaineers posted a combined record of
36-14.
Elliott was one of three Appalachian State coaches to
earn the NCAA’s Award of Valor for their efforts in rescu-
ing two individuals from a car accident on Oct. 1, 2000.
Elliott is married to the former Summer Scruggs, who
was ASU’s women’s tennis Most Valuable Player in 1998.
They have two children, a daughter, Maddyn, and a son,
Max.

CAROLINA FOOTBALL Assistant Coaches
G.A. Mangus begins his fifth season as South Carolina’s
quarterbacks coach. He was responsible for the tutelage of
quarterbacks Connor Shaw and Dylan Thompson during the
2012 campaign. The quarterbacks combined to throw 29
touchdown passes while logging just nine interceptions during
the season.
In 2009, his first season with the Gamecocks, Mangus
helped Stephen Garcia rank second in the SEC in passing and
was third in the league in total offense, behind only Ryan Mal-
lett and Tim Tebow.
His second season saw marked improvement, as Garcia
ranked 22nd in the nation in passing efficiency and moved up
the Carolina passing charts to third all-time in yards, comple-
tions, attempts and touchdowns. Garcia’s completion percent-
age of 64.2 also was one of the top three seasons in school
history.
Mangus helped develop sophomore quarterback Connor
Shaw in his third campaign, the 2011 season. Shaw posted
an 8-1 record as the starting signal-caller. The dual-threat QB
completed 65.4 percent of his passes with 14 touchdowns and
also rushed for over 500 yards with eight scores.
Mangus’ abilities as a coach spill over into recruiting, as
he was named one of the nation’s top 25 recruiters by ESPN,
Rivals.com and by 247Sports.com in February 2011, and one
of the top 50 recruiters in the country by 247Sports.com in ‘12
and ‘13.
Prior to South Carolina, Mangus was the offensive coordi-
nator and quarterbacks coach at Middle Tennessee State for
three seasons working under former Gamecock assistant Rick
Stockstill.
Mangus took over the Delaware Valley program in May 2002,
went 2-8 in his first season, and turned the team into an NCAA
Division III championship contender. In
the next three seasons Delaware Valley
notched a 33-4 record, won three confer-
ence championships, and advanced to the
national quarterfinals twice.
In 2003, Mangus directed the Aggies
to the fifth-best one-year turnaround in
Division III history. They finished 9-2
and captured the Eastern College Athletic
Conference (ECAC) Southeast Champi-
onship, earning him Coach of the Year
honors.
In 2004 and 2005, Mangus led the
Aggies to perfect back-to-back regular-
season records and the team’s first overall
Middle Atlantic Conference champion-
ship. The 2005 squad also earned a MAC
title and advanced to the NCAA playoffs.
Delaware Valley hosted and won its first
two playoff games each season before falling in the quarterfi-
nals, finishing both years with 12-1 marks.
Mangus was named the league’s 2004 Coach of the Year for
the second year in a row and earned the East Region Coach of
the Year Award from Don Hansen’s Football Gazette. Mangus
was voted the American Football Coaches Association (AFCA)
Division III Region 2 Coach of the Year. His off-season was
capped when he was named the Tri-State Coach of the Year by
the Maxwell Football Club.
Mangus was a quarterback at the University of Florida from
1988 to ‘91, including two years under Steve Spurrier. During
that time, he was a member of the school’s first SEC champion-
ship team in 1991.
Following his graduation in 1992, Mangus remained at Flor-
ida for three years, serving in the roles of graduate assistant
and assistant offensive line coach. The Gators won two SEC
titles (1993 and ‘94), reached the championship game in 1992
and made three bowl appearances during that time.
Mangus first full-time position came at Widener. He began
as the running backs and quarterbacks coach and was even-
tually elevated to offensive coordinator. The Pioneers had two
eight-win seasons and made two postseason appearances, in-
cluding a spot in the 1995 Division III playoffs.
Mangus became the assistant head coach and offensive
coordinator for Ursinus College in June 1999 and joined a
program that had gone 3-7 in 1998. The 1999 squad posted
a school-record 10 wins, including its first-ever Division III
playoff win. The Bears went 8-2 the following year for their first
back-to-back winning seasons since 1954.
Mangus and his wife, Lauren, have two daughters, Grace
and Hope.

Joe Robinson begins his second year in Columbia. He
was hired as the Gamecocks’ special teams coordinator
and tight ends coach on January 13, 2012.
During his first season, Ace Sanders established a
school record for punt return yardage in a season while
earning second-team All-America honors and SEC Spe-
cial Teams Player of the Year accolades. The Gamecock
tight ends, led by Justice Cunningham and Rory Ander-
son, along with SEC All-Freshman Jerell Adams, became
a key threat in the passing game.
Robinson, the 2010 FootballScoop Special Teams
Coordinator of the Year, joined the Gamecock staff after
one season at the University of North Carolina where he
coached the defensive line.
Prior to his arrival in Chapel Hill, Robinson spent
three seasons as the defensive line coach and special
teams coordinator at LSU. In his award-winning 2010
season, the Tigers’ special teams finished in the top 13
nationally in net punting, kickoff return average and punt
return average while earning a trip to the Cotton Bowl. In
2009, LSU’s special teams combined to rank No. 1 over-
all in the SEC as the Tigers led the league in both kickoff
coverage (44.5 net average) and punt returns (18.9). LSU
was the only team in the league to rank among the top
three in the conference in four special teams categories.
Kick returner Trinton Holliday led the SEC and ranked
No. 2 in the nation in punt returns and was selected in
the 2010 NFL Draft by the Houston Texans.
Robinson has coached a variety of positions during
his coaching career, including defen-
sive line, special teams, linebackers
and running backs. He also has ex-
perience as a recruiting coordinator
at Southern Miss and Louisiana Tech.
He began his collegiate coaching career at Loui-
siana Tech where he served as a defensive line coach
and recruiting coordinator from 1989-91. Robinson then
coached seven seasons at Southern Miss where he tu-
tored the defensive line (1992-93), linebackers (1994-
95) and special teams (1996-98) while also earning a
master’s degree. He returned to Louisiana Tech for one
year (2001), and also logged stints at Houston (2002)
and Central Florida (2003).
Robinson coached defensive ends and special teams
for four seasons at Arizona from 2004-07. He coached a
number of outstanding special teams performers with the
Wildcats, including NFL draft picks Antoine Cason, (1st
round by San Diego), Nick Folk (6th round by Dallas)
and Syndric Steptoe (7th round by Cleveland). In 2004,
Robinson coached on the same Arizona staff as current
South Carolina wide receivers coach Steve Spurrier, Jr.
A 1985 graduate of LSU, Robinson’s first coaching job
came as an assistant at Catholic High School of Pointe
Coupee in 1986. He was promoted to head coach in
1987. Robinson spent the 1988 season as the defensive
coordinator at Bastrop High School.
Born in Abilene, Texas, Robinson and his wife, Abby,
have three daughters, Alexandra, Madeline and Valerie.

CAROLINA FOOTBALL Assistant Coaches
Everette Sands begins his second season with the
Gamecocks. He was named running backs coach at
South Carolina on January 16, 2012.
In Sands first season, the Gamecocks rushed for 19
touchdowns and averaged 139 yards on the ground.
Carolina lost its top ground-gainer, Marcus Lattimore,
to a season-ending knee injury in the ninth game of the
season against Tennessee, but senior Kenny Miles and
freshman Mike Davis stepped in to pick up the slack in
fine fashion.
Sands came to South Carolina after spending the 2011
campaign coaching the running backs at NC State, his
16th year in the profession. In his lone season with the
Wolfpack, his backs logged four individual 100+ yard
performances for the first time since 2007.
Sands is very familiar with the Palmetto State, having
logged two stints at The Citadel, first from 1999-2000
and again from 2005-10. During his second stint at the
Charleston school, he coached three running backs who
were named to the Southern Conference All-freshman
team and had one back break the school’s single-season
and single-game records for touchdowns. Between his
stints at The Citadel, Sands coached the offensive backs
at Ohio University.
Born July 28, 1971 in Conway, S.C., Sands earned a
bachelor’s degree in computer science from The Citadel
in 1993. He earned four letters as a running back for the
Bulldogs collecting All-Southern Conference honors in
all four years. He ranks second all-time in school his-
tory with 3,926 rushing yards and with 204 points and
34 touchdowns. He garnered All-America accolades as a
junior when he led The Citadel to a conference title and
number one final ranking with 1,449 yards and 12 touch-
downs. He served as a team captain in 1993 and was
inducted into The Citadel Athletic Hall of Fame in 2004.
Sands got into the coaching profession originally at
the high school level in 1995 when he was at Sea Island
Academy in Johns Island, S.C. At that time, he was con-
sidered to be the youngest head coach in the history of
South Carolina high school football.
His first college coaching position came at Elon from
1996-98.
Sands is married to the former Yvette Newton and the
couple has two sons, Everette III “Tre” and Josiah, and
one daughter, Sierra.

Steve Spurrier Jr., who has served on the coaching staffs
of two national championship teams and tutored a bevy of
outstanding receivers at both the collegiate and professional
levels, begins his ninth year as the coach of the Gamecock wide
receivers.
Spurrier was given the additional title of passing game co-
ordinator beginning with the 2009 season and, beginning in
the spring of 2011, added the duties of recruiting coordinator
to his resume. He was promoted to co-offensive coordinator in
the spring of 2012.
In his first season with the Gamecocks in 2005, Spurrier
mentored Sidney Rice, who broke nearly every receiving record
at the school en route to Freshman All-America honors. Rice
ended the campaign as the school’s single-season receiving
yards leader after catching 70 passes for 1,143 yards.
In 2006, Spurrier’s top two receivers, Rice and Kenny McKin-
ley, combined for 123 catches and 1,970 yards receiving, the
top tandem marks in school history. Rice owns two of the top
four receiving seasons in Carolina history and set numerous
records in just two campaigns in the Garnet and Black.
In 2007, McKinley earned first-team all-league recognition
after setting a school record with 77 receptions for 968 yards
and nine touchdowns.
His receivers had another strong year in 2008 as McKinley
became the school’s all-time leading receiver in both recep-
tions (207) and receiving yards (2,781), surpassing the records
previously held by Sterling Sharpe. McKinley, who missed part
of his senior season with an injury, still managed to haul in 54
passes for 642 yards to lead the team and earn honorable men-
tion all-conference recognition.
In 2009, Spurrier developed Alshon Jeffery into a consensus
first-team Freshman All-American after leading the team in re-
ceptions, yards and touchdown catches.
Spurrier helped guide Jeffery to a
school-record season in 2010, as the
sophomore amassed over 1,500 receiv-
ing yards and nine touchdowns, earning
unanimous All-SEC honors, All-America
accolades and a nod as a Biletnikoff
Award finalist.
Jeffery capped his career with 49
catches for 762 yards in 2011, finishing
his three-year stint in the Garnet & Black
with school records in receiving yards
(3,042) and 100-yard receiving games
(12), and tying the school record for
touchdown catches with 23.
The Gamecocks used the tight end more in the passing game
in 2012, as Justice Cunningham and Rory Anderson provided
a nice balance with wideouts Bruce Ellington and Ace Sanders.
That quartet caught 21 of the 29 touchdown passes.
Spurrier brought 11 years of coaching experience to Caro-
lina, with his most recent stop being at the University of Arizona
under head coach Mike Stoops.
He spent two seasons as wide receivers coach in the NFL
with Washington. While with the Redskins, Spurrier Jr. coached
Laveraneus Coles, whose 2003 receiving totals of 82 recep-
tions for 1,204 yards earned him his only Pro Bowl appear-
ance. He also coached Rod Gardner, who was the Redskin’s top
receiver in ‘02 with 1,007 yards.
Spurrier was part of Bob Stoops’ rebuilding project at Okla-
homa, which culminated with a perfect 13-0 record and na-
tional championship in 2000. He spent three seasons as the
Sooners’ wide receivers coach, working with such standouts as
Mark Clayton and Josh Norman.
Prior to his stay in Norman, Spurrier worked at Florida for
five seasons and was part of the Gators’ 1996 national cham-
pionship club.
During his collegiate coaching career, he has been involved
with 14 postseason bowl teams, four conference champion-
ships (three SEC and one Big 12) and two national champion-
ships (Florida 1996 and Oklahoma 2000).
Born in Palo Alto, Calif., Spurrier played collegiate football
at Duke University, where he earned his bachelor’s degree in
1994. He later earned a master’s degree at Florida in 1996.
Spurrier and his wife, the former Melissa Beauchamp, are
the parents of triplets, Luke, Gavin and Emmaline; Nolan; and
twins, Palmer and Hayden.

CAROLINA FOOTBALL Assistant Coaches
Lorenzo Ward wraps up his fifth season with the Gamecocks
and his first season in charge of the Gamecock defense. Ward
was originally named defensive coordinator at South Carolina
on January 12, 2009, working under Assistant Head Coach-De-
fense Ellis Johnson. He focused on the Gamecock cornerbacks
in 2011 after being responsible for both the cornerback and free
safeties in each of the previous two campaigns.
In 2012, the Gamecocks were ranked in the top-25 nationally
in all four statistical categories – 11th in total defense and 13th
in scoring defense, 17th in rushing defense and 21st in pass-
ing defense. The unit was led by All-American defensive end,
Jadeveon Clowney, who had a school record 13 of the team’s
school-record 43 sacks, the nation’s fifth-highest total.
Ward helped guide a defensive unit that finished the 2011
season with the nation’s third-best rated defense, one that sur-
rendered just 268 yards per contest. Carolina boasted the na-
tion’s second-best pass defense and ranks 11th in the country,
allowing just 18.4 points per game. In addition, Carolina forced
32 turnovers. In his debut as the man in charge of the defense,
he limited Nebraska to 13 points and 253 yards of offense, and
shut them out over the final three quarters while allowing just
64 yards in the second half of the 2012 Capital One Bowl game.
Ward helped lead a Gamecock defense that scored six defen-
sive touchdowns during the 2010 season, a school record, with
two scored by his secondary (Stephon Gilmore, D.J. Swear-
inger). Gilmore was cited as an All-SEC selection during his
sophomore campaign.
In his first season at Carolina, Ward’s unit helped the Game-
cocks rank eighth in the nation in pass defense. In addition, the
Gamecocks finished in the upper half in the SEC in scoring de-
fense, rushing defense and total defense. Individually, Gilmore
earned first-team Freshman All-America accolades.
Ward came to South Carolina after
spending one season as the secondary
coach on Bobby Petrino’s staff at Arkan-
sas. Prior to that, he was on Art Shell’s
staff with the NFL’s Oakland Raiders in
2006.
A former player at Alabama, Ward
coached the secondary under Frank
Beamer at Virginia Tech for seven sea-
sons from 1999-2005, with five of his
players earning All-Big East honors and
one making the All-Atlantic Coast Con-
ference squad. Virginia Tech led the na-
tion in total defense, was third in pass
defense and second in pass efficiency
defense in 2005.
The 2004 Hokie defense ranked fourth in the nation in both
pass defense and interceptions. In 2002, the Hokies led the na-
tion with 24 interceptions. The 2001 defense was No. 2 in the
nation in total defense while the 2000 unit was No. 3 in inter-
ceptions. The 1999 defense was No. 3 in total defense and No.
7 in pass efficiency defense.
From 1994-99, Ward was an assistant at Tennessee-Chat-
tanooga, including a two-year stint (1998-99) as defensive
coordinator and defensive backfield coach. He coached the de-
fensive backs from 1994-96 and the running backs in 1997. He
also coached kickoff coverage and the punt team.
Ward played at Alabama from 1986-89, helping the Crimson
Tide go 33-15 with an SEC title in 1989. The Sporting News
named him Special Teams Player of the Year following his se-
nior season as Alabama’s unit was ranked No. 1 in the nation.
Ward and Alabama played in the 1986 Sun Bowl, 1988 Hall of
Fame Bowl, 1988 Sun Bowl and 1990 Sugar Bowl.
He began his coaching career as a graduate assistant under
the tutelage of Ellis Johnson at Alabama in 1991, working with
the defensive backs, before going to Newnan (Ga.) High School
as an assistant in 1992, where he also coached the track team.
He returned to Alabama as a graduate assistant in the fall of
1993, working with the outside linebackers, before going to
Chattanooga.
Ward earned his bachelor’s in physical education from Ala-
bama in 1991.
Ward is married to the former Tara Tubbs. The couple has

NASHVILLE, TENN.—Junior
running back Marcus Lattimore
rushed for 110 yards and two touch-
downs to lead ninth-ranked South
Carolina to a 17-13 victory over
Vanderbilt on Thursday night in the
season opener for both teams at
Vanderbilt Stadium.
With the Gamecocks trailing 13-
10 early in the fourth quarter, Lat-
timore scored the game-winning
touchdown on a 1-yard run with
11:25 remaining. The Gamecock de-
fense then buckled down and allowed
just 17 yards the rest of the way to
seal the win.
South Carolina (1-0, 1-0 SEC) has
now won 13 straight season openers
and nine straight games against SEC
Eastern Division opponents, while
Gamecock head coach Steve Spurrier
improves to 22-1 all-time in season openers. The Commodores (0-1, 0-1) have dropped four
straight games to South Carolina.
In his first game back after suffering a knee injury at Mississippi State last season, Lattimore
averaged 4.8 yards on 23 carries and led the Gamecocks with three receptions for 21 yards.
Despite missing several series with a shoulder injury, junior quarterback Connor Shaw
helped guide the Gamecocks back into the game, connecting on 7-of-11 passes for 67 yards
and rushing 14 times for 92 yards.
The Gamecock defense came up big early after two turnovers by the offense. With Vanderbilt
facing a third and goal at the Carolina 5, linebacker Shaq Wilson stepped in front of a Jordan
Rogers pass and returned the interception 37 yards to the Commodore 49.
Wilson’s interception provided a spark for the offense, as Shaw ran for a 20-yard gain on
Carolina’s first play after the turnover. Lattimore then took care of the rest as he busted loose for
a 29-yard touchdown run, breaking a tackle on his way to the end zone. The touchdown moved
Lattimore into sole possession of third place in career rushing touchdown at Carolina with 28.
Adam Yates tacked on the extra point to give the Gamecocks a 7-0 lead at the 4:55 mark of the
first quarter.
Yates drilled his first career field goal attempt from 20 yards out with 11:44 left in the half to
push South Carolina’s lead to 10-0.
Vanderbilt fought back to tie the game before halftime, as Rogers connected with Jordan Mat-
thews for a 78-yard scoring strike to make it a 10-7 ballgame with 10:37 remaining.
After holding the Gamecocks to a three-and-out on the ensuing possession, the Commo-
dores drove deep into Carolina territory before Carey Spear made a 25-yard field goal to knot
the game at 10-10.
Shaw left the game late in the second quarter with a shoulder injury after rushing for a 2-yard
gain on first down, as the teams ran out the clock and headed into the locker room tied at 10.
Vanderbilt took its first lead of the contest in the third quarter on a 44-yard field goal by Spear
that gave the Commodores a 13-10 advantage with 6:02 on the clock.
But Shaw re-entered the game to help lead the Gamecocks to victory. After the offense stalled
in his first series back, he guided Carolina on a nine-play, 66-yard scoring drive in his second
series, with Lattimore scoring from 1 yard out to give the Gamecocks the lead for good.
Wilson and sophomore defensive tackle Kelcy Quarles led the Carolina defense with eight
tackles apiece, as the Gamecocks surrendered 276 yards. Carolina also had five sacks on the
night.
Rogers led the way for Vanderbilt, completing 13-of-23 passes for 214 yards and one touch-
down.

COLUMBIA, S.C.—In his first
career start, sophomore quarterback
Dylan Thompson threw for 330 yards
and three touchdowns to lead ninth-
ranked South Carolina to a 48-10
victory over East Carolina in its home
opener at Williams-Brice Stadium.
Thompson, who completed 21-of-
37 pass attempts, helped South Caro-
lina amass 528 yards of total offense,
including 397 through the air.
The Gamecocks (2-0) have won
six consecutive contests dating back
to last season. The win also gives
head coach Steve Spurrier the 199th
of his collegiate career.
Junior running back Marcus Lat-
timore led the Gamecock rushing at-
tack with 40 yards and a touchdown
on 13 carries. He is now tied for the
school record for career touchdowns
with 33.
South Carolina had 11 different players with at least one or more receptions. Sophomore
Rory Anderson led the way with career highs in receptions (four), receiving yards (90) and
touchdowns (two). Sophomores Damiere Byrd and Bruce Ellington added 81 and 63 yards, re-
spectively, while senior D.L. Moore had two receptions for 45 yards and two touchdowns. Junior
DeAngelo Smith also had a 30-yard touchdown reception, the first of his career.
Defensively, the Gamecocks surrendered 403 yards but they made big plays for the second
consecutive week, forcing five turnovers (four interceptions, one fumble).
Quin Smith, T.J. Gurley and Jimmy Legree led the defensive effort with five tackles apiece.
Legree also recorded his first career interception and returned it 34 yards for a touchdown.
Seniors D.J. Swearinger and Shaq Wilson and sophomore Brison Williams also came up with
one interception each.
ECU starting quarterback Rio Johnson threw for 193 yards but had three interceptions.
Backup Shane Carden completed 12-of-18 passes for 140 yards with one touchdown and one
interception, while sophomore receiver Justin Hardy hauled in eight passes for 111 yards and a
touchdown to lead the Pirates (1-1).
The Gamecocks wasted little time putting points on the scoreboard as they found the end
zone less than two minutes into the game. On the fourth play of the contest, Thompson connect-
ed with Byrd for a 53-yard pass play to the ECU 6. Lattimore took the handoff on the ensuing play
and plowed his way up the middle for a 6-yard touchdown run to give Carolina the early 7-0 lead.
South Carolina pushed its lead to 14-0 late in the first quarter with a five-play, 71-yard scor-
ing drive capped off by a 7-yard touchdown pass from Thompson to Anderson. Ellington and
Anderson did a majority of damage on the drive, tallying 40 and 24 receiving yards, respectively.
Thompson delivered his second touchdown strike of the contest early in the second quarter,
connecting with Smith in the corner of the end zone from 30 yards out to give the Gamecocks a
21-0 cushion heading into the locker room.
The Carolina defense came up big at the end of the half, forcing turnovers on three of ECU’s
final four possessions of the second quarter.
The defense kept its momentum going to start the second half, as Wilson stepped in front of
a Carden pass at the ECU 29 for his second interception of the season. Three plays later Thomp-
son completed a pass to Moore, who dodged defenders on his way into the end zone for a 29-
yard TD to give the Gamecocks a 28-0 lead. On the ensuing possession, Carolina scored again
when Legree intercepted a Johnson pass at the ECU 34 and raced into the end zone untouched.
A 23-yard field goal by ECU’s Warren Harvey at the 1:44 mark of the third made it 35-3.
The Gamecocks added another touchdown with the help of some trickery, as receiver Ace
Sanders caught a lateral and found Moore wide open for a 16-yard touchdown pass early in the
fourth quarter, giving South Carolina a 41-3 lead.
After ECU scored its first touchdown on a 34-yard pass from Carden to Hardy, USC capped
the scoring with a 51-yard scoring strike from Seth Strickland to Anderson late in the contest.

COLUMBIA, S.C.—No. 8/9
South Carolina amassed 501 yards of
total offense en route to a 49-6 vic-
tory over UAB on Saturday night at
Williams-Brice Stadium, giving head
coach Steve Spurrier his 200th career
victory as a collegiate head coach.
With the win, the Gamecocks im-
prove to 3-0 and extend their winning
streak to seven games dating back to
last season, which ties for the second
longest streak in school history.
For the second straight week,
South Carolina gained more than 500
yards of offense, passing for 322 and
rushing for 179. The Gamecocks had
to mix up quarterbacks after junior
Connor Shaw left the game late in the
second quarter with an injury. Shaw
completed 8-of-14 passes for 107
yards and a touchdown before leaving
the game. Sophomore Dylan Thompson came in after Shaw’s injury and had plenty of success
directing the offense, throwing for 177 yards and two scores.
Junior running back Marcus Lattimore rushed for 85 yards on just 12 carries and had one
score as he became South Carolina’s career leader in touchdowns with 34. He also moved into a
tie with George Rogers and Harold Green for first in school history in rushing touchdowns with
31. Freshman Mike Davis contributed 84 yards and a touchdown on just four carries.
Bruce Ellington led the receiving corps with five catches for 98 yards, and Damiere Byrd had
a 94-yard touchdown reception. Ace Sanders hauled in four passes for 55 yards and a score, and
freshman Shaq Roland added a 30-yard touchdown reception.
Defensively, the Gamecocks were just as impressive as they allowed 267 yards of offense,
including just 89 in the second half. Senior linebacker Shaq Wilson tallied a game-high eight
tackles. Sophomore Jadeveon Clowney was in the UAB backfield disrupting plays for most of
the night, recording seven tackles (3.5 for a loss) and two sacks. Senior D.J. Swearinger added
three stops and a 65-yard fumble return for a touchdown.
UAB quarterback Jonathan Perry accounted for most of the Blazers’ offense, completing 17-
of-34 passes for 219 yards.
The Blazers (0-2) came out strong as Jackie Williams returned the opening kickoff 53 yards
to the South Carolina 35. UAB settled for a 33-yard field goal by Ty Long to take a 3-0 lead at
the 12:41 mark of the first quarter.
After the Gamecock offense stalled on its first two drives of the game, the Carolina defense
provided a spark. On a third and 12 for UAB at the Gamecock 35, Swearinger recovered a Perry
fumble in mid-air and raced 65 yards for a touchdown, giving South Carolina a 7-3 lead with
2:17 left in the quarter.
The Gamecock defense came up big again on the ensuing possession, stopping UAB on
fourth and 12 from the South Carolina 36. The Gamecocks then went on a nine-play, 64-yard
scoring drive capped by a 16-yard touchdown pass from Shaw to Sanders. Adam Yates’ extra
point gave Carolina a 14-3 lead with 11:15 remaining in the half.
UAB pulled to within 14-6 with a 46-yard field goal by Long with 4:34 on the clock, but South
Carolina pushed its lead to 21-6 heading into the locker room, as Lattimore ended a five-play,
37-yard drive with a 2-yard touchdown run with 1:37 left.
South Carolina put the game out of reach early in the third quarter, as Thompson guided the
offense down the field on the opening possession of the half. He connected on passes of 11 and
43 yards to Ellington to set the Gamecocks up at the UAB 6 before finishing off the drive himself
with a 6-yard touchdown run to push Carolina’s lead to 28-6.
After the defense shut down the Blazers on the next two possessions, Thompson completed a
94-yard touchdown pass to Byrd – the fourth longest pass play in school history – at the 7:03
mark of the third quarter to give South Carolina a 35-6 cushion.
The Gamecocks added two more scores in the fourth quarter – a 30-yard touchdown pass
from Thompson to Roland and a 3-yard touchdown run by Davis – to build the final margin.

COLUMBIA, S.C.—Junior
quarterback Connor Shaw threw for
249 yards and two touchdowns and
completed a school-record 20 con-
secutive passes to finish the game as
he led No. 7/8 South Carolina to a 31-
10 victory over Missouri on Saturday
at Williams-Brice Stadium.
Shaw’s 20 consecutive comple-
tions are tied for the second most in
SEC history with Ole Miss’ Kent Aus-
tin, who had 20 straight against Ten-
nessee in 1982. Shaw’s completion
percentage of 95.2 is also a school
record and ranks second in SEC his-
tory behind Tee Martin’s (Tennessee)
record of 95.8 (23-of-24), which
came against South Carolina in 1998.
The Gamecocks (4-0, 2-0 SEC)
amassed 396 yards of total offense on
Saturday, with 252 coming through the air and 144 on the ground. Junior running back Marcus
Lattimore rushed for 85 yards and two touchdowns, averaging four yards per carry to lead the
rushing attack. His first touchdown of the afternoon, a 2-yard run early in the second quarter,
moved him past George Rogers (1977-80) and Harold Green (1986-1989) for first all-time in
career rushing touchdowns at South Carolina with 32. Shaw added 41 yards on 12 carries.
Lattimore also had a stellar day catching passes out of the backfield, tallying seven recep-
tions for 60 yards. Senior tight end Justice Cunningham added four receptions for 41 yards, and
junior receiver Ace Sanders had a 23-yard touchdown reception.
Contributing to the Gamecocks’ dominant performance was their play on special teams.
Sanders returned six punts for 106 yards, including a long of 49. Sophomore Bruce Ellington
also had one kickoff return, Carolina’s first of the season, for 50 yards.
Defensively, South Carolina held the Tigers to 255 yards of offense (109 rushing, 146 pass-
ing). Quin Smith led the way with a season-high 10 tackles, and Devonte Holloman and Shaq
Wilson contributed seven stops each. Jadeveon Clowney added four tackles and 1.5 sacks.
Missouri quarterback James Franklin led the Tigers with 92 yards passing, and running back
Kendial Lawrence contributed 67 yards on the ground. Linebacker Will Ebner tallied a game-
high 14 tackles to carry the Missouri defense.
Special teams played a key role in South Carolina’s strong finish to the first half. After a score-
less first quarter, Sanders gave Carolina a much-needed spark early in the second quarter with a
lengthy punt return as he weaved his way down the field and broke several tackles for a 49-yard
gain to the Missouri 4. Two plays later, Lattimore burst into the end zone from 2 yards out, giving
the Gamecocks a 7-0 lead with 11:08 left in the half.
The Gamecock defense then forced a Missouri fumble on the ensuing series, and senior
defensive end Devin Taylor fell on the ball at the Tiger 37. Shaw took advantage of the excellent
field position as he connected with Nick Jones for a 36-yard pass to the Missouri 1, setting up
a 1-yard touchdown run by Lattimore. Adam Yates knocked through the extra point to give the
Gamecocks a 14-0 advantage at the 10:14 mark of the second quarter.
The Tigers (2-2, 0-2 SEC) put together their best possession of the half late in the second
quarter, driving 76 yards on 12 plays to the Carolina 4. However, the Gamecock defense did
not break as it held the Tigers to a 22-yard field goal by Andrew Baggett with 1:20 remaining.
Special teams came through once again for the Gamecocks on the ensuing kickoff, as El-
lington fielded the ball in the end zone and broke loose for a 50-yard return, giving the offense
a chance to score before the half. Four plays later, Shaw found Sanders open down the sideline
for a 23-yard touchdown pass, giving the Gamecocks a 21-3 lead heading into the locker room.
The Gamecocks put the game out of reach late in the third quarter, going on a 10-play, 47-
yard scoring drive. Shaw capped the drive with a 13-yard touchdown pass to Rory Anderson,
giving Carolina a 28-3 cushion.
Shaw remained in the game early in the fourth quarter and completed a 10-yard pass to
Damiere Byrd on his final pass attempt of the day.

LEXINGTON,KY— Sixth-ranked South
Carolina erased a 10-point halftime deficit, scor-
ing 31 second half points, on the way to a 38-17
victory over Kentucky on Saturday night at Com-
monwealth Stadium. The Gamecocks are 5-0 on
the year and 3-0 in the SEC while the loss drops
Kentucky to 1-4 overall and 0-2 in the league. It
was the Gamecocks’ ninth-straight win, tying the
school record set in 1984.
Junior running back Marcus Lattimore car-
ried 23 times for 120 rushing yards and tallied
two touchdowns with junior quarterback Connor
Shaw going 15-for-18 in the air for 148 yards
and two touchdowns as well as 19 carries for 76
yards on the ground.
The Gamecocks appeared to be going in for
the first score of the game midway through the
first quarter on their second drive of the game.
With 3rd and goal from the Kentucky 1, the
Kentucky defense stood tall and stopped South
Carolina on a pair of quarterback sneaks to take over on downs near the goalline.
The Wildcats rode the momentum of their defense putting together a 16-play 94-yard drive
before settling for a 22-yard field goal by Craig McIntosh that gave Kentucky a 3-0 lead. Twice,
the Wildcats converted a pair of 3rd-and-long conversions on 12-yard rush by Jalen Whitlow
and a 24-yard rush from Sanders. A key 20-yard pass completion as well as a 15-yard face
mask penalty gave Kentucky the ball deep in Carolina territory. However, the Gamecock defense
responded on its own with a goal line stand, forcing McIntosh to kick a first field goal.
South Carolina broke on top in the second quarter going 64 yards to paydirt. Shaw rushed for
11 yards and completed a pair of passes to Marcus Lattimore as well as a 37-yard completion
to Rory Anderson that put the Gamecocks into scoring position. Deep into Kentucky territory,
Shaw found Ace Sanders for a three-yard touchdown reception giving the Gamecocks a 7-3 lead.
Kentucky answered on its next possession though with a touchdown of its own to regain the
lead. Whitlow had a steady dose of rushes and passes before capping the drive with an eight-
yard touchdown run. The Wildcats were also aided on the drive by a 15-yard face mask penalty
by the Gamecocks that moved Kentucky deep into South Carolina territory.
With a three-point lead, Kentucky held the Gamecock offense to a three and out and blocked
Tyler Hull’s punt giving the Wildcats the ball on the South Carolina 34-yard line. As Kentucky
threatened, the Gamecocks suffered a bad break as a tipped pass by Gamecock defensive back
Jimmy Legree landed in the hands of UK wide receiver Daryl Collins as Kentucky made its
way into the red zone. Raymond Sanders capped the drive with a 10-yard touchdown run that
increased Kentucky’s lead to 17-7.
Trailing 17-7 at halftime, the Gamecocks scored on their opening possession of the second
half to cut the deficit to three. A 14-yard rush to convert a third down followed by an 11-yard rush
by Shaw set up a 30-yard touchdown pass to Damiere Byrd.
After the defense forced a three-and-out, the Gamecock offense drove 57 yards on the next
drive to regain the lead. Carolina mixed the run and the pass on an eight-play drive that was
capped by a 17-yard touchdown run by Kenny Miles, putting Carolina ahead for good at 21-17.
With a four-point advantage heading into the fourth quarter, South Carolina put the game
away with two more touchdowns and a field goal. The Gamecocks’ longest drive of the season
in time of possession, 7:12, was capped by a three-yard touchdown run by Lattimore. It was a
14-play, 81-yard drive that featured 63 rushing yards by Lattimore.
The Gamecocks held a 28-17 lead with the defense continuing its steady play. DeVonte Hollo-
man intercepted the Kentucky quarterback on the next possession with freshman defensive tackle
Gerald Dixon Jr. coming up with another interception on the Wildcats’ next possession. Dixon
Jr.’s interception set up Lattimore’s second touchdown of the game, this one from four yards out.
Carolina would add a 31-yard field goal by Adam Yates to complete the scoring. After allowing
173 total yards in the first half, the defense delivered in the second half, shutting out the Wildcats
on just 70 yards in the final 30 minutes. Carolina’s offense was stellar in the second half scoring
31 points and gaining 240 yards, including 184 yards on the ground.

COLUMBIA, S.C.—Sixth-ranked
South Carolina put together one of its
most complete efforts of the season on
Saturday night against No. 5 Georgia en
route to a 35-7 victory in front of a re-
cord crowd of 85,199 at Williams-Brice
Stadium.
The Gamecocks rolled up 392
yards of offense and held Georgia to a
season-low 224 yards of offense. The
Bulldogs entered the contest averaging
48.2 points per game and 536 yards per
contest.
With the win, South Carolina im-
proves to 6-0 overall and 4-0 in the
SEC. The victory is the Gamecocks’ 10th
straight, which is the longest winning
streak in school history, and it’s their
12th consecutive over SEC Eastern Di-
vision opponents. The win is also head
coach Steve Spurrier’s 250th career coaching victory (collegiate and pro combined).
Junior quarterback Connor Shaw and junior running back Marcus Lattimore combined for
349 yards of South Carolina’s total offense. Shaw completed 6-of-10 passes for 162 yards and
two touchdowns through the air and added 78 yards and a score on the ground. Lattimore car-
ried the ball 24 times for 109 yards and a score, giving him his 11th career 100-yard game and
third against the Bulldogs.
Defensively, South Carolina limited Georgia quarterback Aaron Murray, as he completed just
11-of-31 passes for 109 yards and threw one interception. The Gamecocks also held Bulldog
freshman running back standouts Todd Gurley and Keith Marshall to 39 and 37 yards, respec-
tively. The duo entered the contest averaging a combined 192.8 yards per game.
Sophomore safety Brison Williams led South Carolina’s defensive effort with seven tackles
and two pass breakups. Sophomore Jadeveon Clowney added four stops, including a sack and
two tackles for a loss, and DeVonte Holloman recorded an interception for the only turnover of
the game and tallied three tackles.
The Gamecocks fed off of the energy from the record crowd from the start and took the open-
ing possession for a five-play, 76-yard scoring drive. A 42-yard pass from Shaw to Damiere Byrd
on the second play of the game set South Carolina up at the Georgia 30-yard line. Three plays
later Shaw threw a strike to Bruce Ellington for a 20-yard touchdown pass, giving the Gamecocks
a 7-0 lead less than three minutes into the game.
The South Carolina defense kept the momentum going on the ensuing possession, as Kelcy
Quarles deflected a Murray pass into the air and Holloman dove under the ball for an interception
at the Gamecock 31. The Gamecocks took advantage of the Bulldog miscue, marching 69 yards
in 11 plays for a touchdown. Shaw connected with Rory Anderson for a 14-yard scoring strike,
giving South Carolina a 14-0 lead at the 6:29 mark of the first quarter.
After the defense forced a three-and-out on the next possession, the Gamecock special teams
got involved in the early outburst. On fourth and 8 from the Georgia 30, junior punt returner Ace
Sanders fielded a Collin Barber punt at the South Carolina 30 and weaved his way through the
punt coverage 70 yards for a touchdown and a 21-0 first quarter lead.
The Bulldogs (5-1, 3-1 SEC) threatened to score late in the second quarter as they went on a
15-play, 80-yard drive to the South Carolina 2. However, the Gamecock defense buckled down
at the goal line and stuffed the Bulldogs on fourth and goal to preserve a 21-0 halftime lead.
After stalling on its first drive of the second half, the Gamecocks put the game out of reach
with a four-play, 63-yard scoring drive on their second possession. D.L. Moore hauled in a 62-
yard pass from Shaw over a Georgia defender to set South Carolina up at the Georgia 1 on the
third play of the drive. Lattimore then burst up the middle for a 1-yard touchdown run to give the
Gamecocks a 28-0 lead with 10:32 left in the third quarter.
South Carolina added one more score with a 14-play, 89-yard scoring drive that ate up 9
minutes and 28 seconds off the clock. Shaw finished off the drive with a 7-yard touchdown run
to push the Gamecocks’ lead to 35-0.
Georgia avoided the shutout with a 3-yard touchdown run by Ken Malcome with 1:55 left.

BATON ROUGE, LA — Third-
ranked South Carolina was unable to
overcome a late nine-point deficit at
LSU on Saturday night, as the No. 9/8
Tigers held on to claim a 23-21 victory
over the Gamecocks at Tiger Stadium.
The loss snaps a school-record
10-game winning streak for the Game-
cocks, who fall to 6-1 overall and 4-1
in the SEC. LSU improves to 6-1 on
the season and 2-1 in conference play.
South Carolina held a 14-10 lead
heading into the fourth quarter. How-
ever, the Tigers made a pair of field
goals in the final stanza to take the lead
for good, and a 50-yard touchdown
run by Jeremy Hill pushed LSU’s lead
to 23-14 with 5:03 remaining.
The Gamecocks refused to go
down, as junior quarterback Connor
Shaw guided the offense on a 12-play,
91-yard scoring drive capped by a 1-yard touchdown pass to Bruce Ellington to trim LSU’s lead
to 23-21 with 1:41 remaining. The South Carolina defense then forced a three-and-out, but
LSU’s Craig Loston came up with an interception on the ensuing possession to seal the win.
South Carolina finished the night with 211 yards of offense, while LSU accumulated 407
yards. Shaw completed 19-of-34 passes for 177 yards and two scores and had two intercep-
tions. Junior Ace Sanders tied a career high with five receptions for 49 yards and a touchdown
to lead the receiving corps.
Junior Marcus Lattimore led Carolina on the ground with 35 yards and a TD on 13 carries.
Defensively, senior linebacker Shaq Wilson recorded a career-high 14 tackles and a sack to
lead the way. Safety D.J. Swearinger and cornerback Victory Hampton added 10 tackles apiece.
Hill led the Tigers’ attack with 17 carries for 124 yards and two touchdowns.
The Gamecock defense came up big on LSU’s first drive of the game, as the Tigers drove
down to the South Carolina 2-yard line. On third-and-goal, Gamecock linebackers Wilson and
Reginald Bowens stood up Tiger running back Kenny Hilliard at the 1-yard line. After a false start
penalty on fourth down moved the ball back to the 6-yard line, the Tigers were forced to settle for
a 23-yard field goal by Drew Alleman to take a 3-0 lead with 5:32 left in the first quarter.
South Carolina’s offense stalled on its second drive of the contest, but the defense provided
one of the biggest plays of the night on the ensuing possession. On second-and-seven from the
South Carolina 34, junior cornerback Jimmy Legree stepped in front of a Zach Mettenberger
pass at the 29 and returned the interception 70 yards to the LSU 1.
Shaw and the offense took advantage of the momentum-changing play. On second-and-goal
from the 2, Shaw rolled right and connected with Sanders for a 2-yard touchdown pass, giving
the Gamecocks a 7-3 lead with 14:54 left in the half.
LSU went on another lengthy drive following the Gamecocks’ score, but once again the South
Carolina defense stood tall in the red zone and forced a fourth-and-10 from the South Carolina
15. Alleman entered to attempt a 32-yard field goal but he missed it wide left, as the Gamecocks
held on to their 7-3 lead the remainder of the half.
The teams battled back and forth in the second half. LSU opened the half with a nine-play,
69-yard scoring drive capped by a 7-yard touchdown run by Hill, giving the Tigers a 10-7 lead
at the 11:13 mark of the third quarter.
The Gamecocks answered late in the third quarter with a five-play, 39-yard scoring drive. A
30-yard pass from Shaw to tight end Justice Cunningham set South Carolina up at the LSU 2.
From there, Lattimore burst into the end zone for a 2-yard touchdown run, as the Gamecocks
took a 14-10 lead with 5:11 left in the quarter.
The Tigers pulled to within 14-13 early in the fourth quarter, as a 20-yard field goal by Alle-
man capped a 16-play, 75-yard drive.

Gamecock 22, setting up a 22-yard field goal by Alleman that gave LSU the lead for good with
6:37 left in the contest.

GAINESVILLE, FLA. — No. 9/8
South Carolina was unable to over-
come three costly first-half turnovers
as it fell to No. 3/4 Florida, 44-11, on
Saturday afternoon at Ben Hill Griffin
Stadium.
The Gamecocks turned the ball
over three times in the first half deep
in their own territory, which led to 21
points for the Gators.
With the loss, South Carolina falls
to 6-2 on the season and 4-2 in SEC
play. It is the Gamecocks’ first lost
against a SEC Eastern Division op-
ponent since 2010 at Kentucky. The
Gators move to 7-0 overall and 6-0 in
the conference.
South Carolina outgained the Ga-
tors 191-183 in total offense, but four
turnovers allowed Florida to finish the
contest with an average starting field
position of the 50-yard line.
Senior placekicker Adam Yates made field goals of 35, 51 and 30 yards to score the majority
of South Carolina’s points, while sophomore defensive back Victor Hampton returned a blocked
extra point attempt for two points on Florida’s first score of the second half.
Sophomore quarterback Dylan Thompson led South Carolina with 83 yards passing, while
junior Connor Shaw had 72 yards through the air.
Florida quarterback Jeff Driskel completed 11-of-16 passes for 93 yards and four touch-
downs to lead the Gators.
Defensively, senior linebacker Reginald Bowens tied a career high with 11 tackles to lead
the Gamecocks, while senior spur DeVonte Holloman added eight tackles and a sack. Defensive
ends Devin Taylor and Jadeveon Clowney also had a sack apiece for South Carolina.
The Gamecock defense dominated the first half, holding Florida to just 29 yards of offense.
However, three turnovers by the offense led to 21 points for the Gators.
On the first play of the game, Florida defensive back Loucheiz Purifoy stripped Shaw at the
Gamecock 5-yard line, and the Gators recovered the fumble at the 2.
The turnover set up a 3-yard touchdown pass from Driskel to Jordan Reed that gave Florida
a 7-0 lead less than a minute into the game.
South Carolina shook off the early miscue and went on a 15-play, 61-yard scoring drive.
Yates capped the drive with a 35-yard field goal to trim Florida’s lead to 7-3.
The Gamecock defense then forced four straight three-and-outs, but after the fourth Ace
Sanders fumbled the punt, and the Gators recovered at the South Carolina 29. Six plays later,
Driskel connected with Quinton Dunbar for a 13-yard scoring strike to give Florida a 14-3 lead
with three minutes left in the second quarter.
On the ensuing kickoff, Damiere Byrd fumbled on the return, and it was recovered by Florida’s
Chris Johnson at the South Carolina 13 and returned to the 1-yard line. Driskel then gave the
Gators a 21-3 lead with a 1-yard touchdown pass to Reed with 2:02 left in the half.
South Carolina gained some momentum heading into the locker room, as Yates drilled a
career-long 51-yard field as time expired to cut Florida’s lead to 21-6. However, the Gamecocks
were outscored 23-5 in the second half.

COLUMBIA, S.C.—No. 17/16
South Carolina came up with a pair
of crucial defensive plays down the
stretch to hold off Tennessee for a 38-
35 victory at Williams-Brice Stadium.
The Volunteers (3-5, 0-5 SEC)
drove inside the Gamecock 20-yard
line with less than two minutes re-
maining in the contest. However,
Jadeveon Clowney sacked quarter-
back Tyler Bray on first and 10, forcing
a fumble that was recovered by Shaq
Wilson to end the threat. After the Ten-
nessee defense forced a three-and-out
on the next possession, cornerback
Victor Hampton intercepted a deep
pass by Bray with 23 seconds left to
seal the win.
The game was an offensive show-
case with the teams combining for 982
yards of total offense. The Gamecocks
(7-2, 5-2 SEC) rolled up 510 yards of offense which was their second highest total of the season,
while the Volunteers finished the day with 472 yards, including 381 passing.
Connor Shaw put together one of his best performances as a Gamecock as he threw for a
career-high 356 yards (22-of-32) and three TDs. He also added 33 yards and a score rushing.
A trio of Gamecocks posted career highs in receiving yards. Junior Justice Cunningham
hauled in six passes for 108 yards. Bruce Ellington also caught six passes for 101 yards and a
touchdown, and Ace Sanders snagged five passes for 79 yards and a score.
Marcus Lattimore led the ground attack as he rushed for 65 yards and a touchdown on 11
carries before being carted off the field in the second quarter with a right knee injury.
Bray led the Tennessee offense, completing 27-of-43 passes for 368 yards and four touch-
downs. Three of those scores went to Zach Rogers, who caught six passes for 107 yards.
The Gamecocks came out strong. After the Carolina defense forced Tennessee into a three-
and-out on the first possession of the game, Shaw guided the offense on a nine-play, 81-yard
scoring drive on the ensuing possession. He went 4-for-4 on the drive and connected with
Ellington for a 33-yard touchdown pass to give the Gamecocks a 7-0 lead.
The Volunteers provided an answer on the next possession, as Bray completed an 8-yard
touchdown pass to Rogers to cap a 10-play, 75-yard drive to tie the game at seven.
Shaw helped the Gamecocks regain the lead early in the second quarter as he led the offense
on an eight-play, 53-yard scoring drive. He connected with Anderson for a 26-yard scoring strike
to give South Carolina a 14-7 lead with 11:27 left in the half.
The Gamecocks needed just four plays on their next possession to push their lead to 21-7.
Lattimore broke free for a 28-yard touchdown run to finish off the drive.
Tennessee wouldn’t go away, however, as Bray found Rogers for a 37-yard touchdown pass
on the ensuing possession to pull the Volunteers to with in 21-14.
South Carolina regained its two-touchdown advantage just before the half with a 10-play, 67-
yard touchdown drive. With 14 seconds remaining, Shaw took the snap from the shotgun at the
1-yard line and strolled into the end zone off the left edge for a touchdown, giving the Gamecocks
a 28-14 lead heading into the locker room.
Tennessee battled back on its first possession of the third quarter. Bray completed a 61-yard
touchdown pass to Vincent Dallas to trim the lead to 28-21.
The Gamecocks seemed to take control of the contest with an 11-play, 80-yard touchdown
drive late in the quarter that ate up five minutes and 42 seconds. Shaw found Sanders for a 24-
yard scoring strike to cap the drive, giving South Carolina a 35-21 lead.
Tennessee responded once again with another lengthy drive. With the ball at the Gamecock
13, Alton Howard lined up at quarterback for the Volunteers, rolled right and found Mychal
Rivera in the end zone to pull Tennessee to within 35-28 at the 14:55 mark of the fourth quarter.
After South Carolina pushed its lead to 38-28 with a 36-yard field goal by Yates, the Volun-
teers cut it to 38-35 on the ensuing possession. Rogers hauled in his third touchdown reception
of the day, this time a 22-yarder, but that’s as close as it would get.

South Carolina amassed 383 yards
of offense and forced three turnovers
en route to a dominant 38-20 win over
Arkansas on Saturday afternoon at
Williams-Brice Stadium.
With the victory, the Gamecocks
improve to 8-2 overall and 6-2 in the
SEC. The win snaps a three-game
losing streak to the Razorbacks and
extends South Carolina’s home win-
ning streak to 10 games, which is the
third longest streak in school history.
Arkansas drops to 4-6 on the season
and 2-4 in conference play.
The Gamecocks racked up more
than 300 yards of offense for the
seventh time this season and fell just
short of reaching 400 for the fourth
time. Junior quarterback Connor Shaw
led the way, completing 14-of-22 passes for 272 yards and two touchdowns while rushing for a
score as well. Five of his completions went to sophomore receiver Bruce Ellington, who finished
the contest with a career-high 104 receiving yards and a touchdown. Freshman tight end Jerell
Adams added a 29-yard touchdown reception, the first of his career. Freshman running back
Mike Davis led the ground attack, rushing for 57 yards and a touchdown on 13 carries.
Defensively, the Gamecocks surrendered 360 yards of offense but they forced three turnovers,
including a 69-yard interception return for a touchdown by senior D.J. Swearinger. A native of
Greenwood, S.C., Swearinger recorded a career-high 13 tackles on the day.
Senior cornerback Akeem Auguste also had an interception, while senior linebacker Reginald
Bowens recovered a fumble. Sophomore defensive end Jadeveon Clowney added two tackles
and a sack. He now has 9.5 on the season, which ranks third all-time at South Carolina for sacks
in a single season.
The Gamecocks came out strong early offensively as they marched 77 yards in 10 plays on
their opening possession. Shaw connected with Adams across the middle for a 29-yard scoring
strike to give South Carolina a 7-0 lead at the 5:47 mark of the first quarter.
Arkansas knotted the game at 7-7 midway through the second quarter, as quarterback Tyler
Wilson capped a six-play, 50-yard scoring drive with a 6-yard touchdown pass to Keon Hatcher.
For the contest, Wilson completed 26-of-41 passes for 277 yards and two touchdowns. He also
threw a pair of interceptions.
South Carolina answered to regain the lead for good on the ensuing possession. A 36-yard
pass from Shaw to Ellington and a personal foul penalty on the Razorbacks on the third play
of the drive set the Gamecocks up at the Arkansas 14-yard line. Three plays later, Shaw rolled
around the right side and sprinted to the pylon for a 10-yard touchdown run, giving the Game-
cocks a 14-7 advantage with 5:28 left in the half.
A 20-yard field goal by Zach Hocker at the 3:28 mark of the second quarter pulled Arkansas
to within 14-10, but South Carolina extended its lead to double digits just before the half. On
fourth and 5 from the Arkansas 42, Shaw connected with a wide-open Ellington near the sideline,
and Ellington made a defender miss as he darted into the end zone for a touchdown, giving the
Gamecocks a 21-10 lead with 1:30 remaining in the half.
The Razorbacks moved the ball to the Gamecock 45 on their last possession of the half, but
Aldrick Fordham and Chaz Sutton each came up with a sack to end the threat and send the teams
into the locker room with South Carolina leading 21-10.
South Carolina put the game out of reach early in the second half. After Adam Yates drilled a
41-yard field goal to give the Gamecocks a 24-10 lead on the opening possession of the third
quarter, the defense provided the game-sealing play on the ensuing possession. On first and
10 from the South Carolina 36, Swearinger stepped in front of a Wilson pass and returned the
interception 69 yards to the end zone, giving the Gamecocks a 31-10 cushion.
After Hocker made it a 31-13 game with a 21-yard field goal at the 5:48 mark of the third
quarter, the Gamecocks added one more touchdown, a 2-yard run by Davis, on the ensuing pos-
session to push their lead to 38-13.

COLUMBIA, S.C.—Senior run-
ning back Kenny Miles rushed for a
career-high 127 yards and one touch-
down to help lead No. 12/11 South
Carolina to a 24-7 victory over Wofford
on Senior Day Saturday afternoon at
Williams-Brice Stadium.
With the win, the Gamecocks (9-2)
finish the year a perfect 7-0 at home for
the first time since 1987. The victory
also gives head coach Steve Spurrier
his 64th career victory at South Caro-
lina, tying Rex Enright’s school record.
Wofford drops to 8-3 on the season.
Miles, who was one of 29 seniors
honored prior to the game, carried the
ball a career-high 27 times, averaging
4.7 yards per touch. It was his fourth
career 100-yard rushing game. Miles
also pulled down four passes for 27
yards.
South Carolina junior quarterback Connor Shaw completed 16-of-20 passes for 122 yards
and had one touchdown and one interception. Junior Ace Sanders caught five of those passes
for a team-high 35 yards and a score to lead the receiving corps.
The Gamecock defense gave up 330 yards of offense to the Terriers but came up with several
big stops and forced three turnovers to help pull away for the victory. Senior D.J. Swearinger led
the way with 12 tackles, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery. Seniors Shaq Wilson and Byron
Jerideau tallied 10 tackles apiece, while senior Akeem Auguste recovered a fumble and returned
it 31 yards for a touchdown.
The game got off to a slow start as the teams battled through a scoreless first quarter. The
Gamecocks eventually struck first with a 13-play, 51-yard scoring drive that ate up more than
five minutes of clock. Miles did most of the damage on the drive as he rushed for 43 yards,
including a 2-yard touchdown run that that gave South Carolina a 7-0 lead at the 14:56 mark of
the second quarter.
The Carolina defense clamped down on the Wofford rushing attack early on as it forced three-
and-outs on the Terriers’ first three possessions, surrendering just 17 yards.
The Gamecocks seemed to be on the way to extending their lead to 14-0 midway through the
second quarter with a drive that went deep into Wofford territory. However, freshman running
back Mike Davis fumbled at the end of a 16-yard run at the Terrier 6-yard line, and Wofford’s
Blake Wylie recovered at the 1.
The Terriers found a groove offensively right before the half and engineered a 12-play, 85-
yard scoring drive. Eric Breitenstein rushed for 46 yards on the drive, including a 2-yard touch-
down run with 32 seconds left in the half that tied the game at 7-7. Breitenstein finished the
contest with 125 yards on 28 carries to lead Wofford.
Wofford gave the Gamecocks a scare on its opening possession of the second half as it drove
to the Gamecock 27. However, on first and 10 Swearinger knocked the ball loose from Octavius
Harden, and Carolina’s Brison Williams recovered to end the threat.
South Carolina took advantage by going on a 15-play, 68-yard scoring drive capped by a
23-yard field goal by senior Adam Yates that gave the Gamecocks a 10-7 advantage with 11:57
left in the fourth quarter.
The defensive unit then came up with a huge fourth down stop for the Gamecocks on the
ensuing possession. On fourth and 1 from the Wofford 34, Carolina seniors Devin Taylor and
Quin Smith stuffed Breitenstein for no gain, setting the offense up with excellent field position.
Five plays later, Shaw connected with Sanders for an 8-yard touchdown pass at the 8:10 mark,
giving South Carolina a 17-7 lead.
The Gamecocks then put the game out of reach on the next possession with another big
defensive play. Auguste scooped up a forced fumble by Reginald Bowens on Wofford’s second
play of the drive at the Terrier 31 and returned it for a touchdown to extend South Carolina’s
lead to 24-7.

CLEMSON, S.C. —Head coach
Steve Spurrier became the winningest
coach in South Carolina history with
65 wins as the Gamecocks (10-2)
defeated Clemson (10-2) 27-17 on
Saturday evening for Carolina’s fourth
straight victory in the series vs. the
Tigers. Sophomore quarterback Dylan
Thompson went 23-for-41 for 310
yards in the air with three touchdown
passes and sophomore defensive end
Jadeveon Clowney tallied 4.5 sacks to
set the single-season record at Caro-
lina with 13 on the year.
The Gamecocks had a complete
performance in all three phases. The
Carolina offense totaled 444 yards
on the day. Thompson connected six
times to Ace Sanders for 119 yards,
the most receiving yards by a Game-
cock player this year as well as a
touchdown. Bruce Ellington also had seven catches for 72 yards with two touchdowns. Caro-
lina’s defense limited the Tigers to just three points and 91 total yards in the second half. Adam
Yates went 2-for-2 for field goals with Sanders tallying a 30-yard punt return to set the school’s
single-season record at 363 punt return yards.
With a 20-17 lead in the fourth quarter, the Gamecocks put together a 13-play 65-yard drive
that was capped by a 6-yard touchdown pass from Ellington to Thompson that gave Carolina a
commanding 10-point lead. That was enough for the defense as they stopped Clemson two more
times with Clowney tallying a pair of sacks in the Tigers’ final two possessions.
The Tigers struck first on their second possession of the game with a 16-play, 85-yard scor-
ing drive that ate up more than six minutes of clock. Quarterback Tajh Boyd capped the drive
with a 3-yard touchdown run on an option keeper to give Clemson a 7-0 lead with 5:27 left in
the first quarter.
South Carolina responded on the ensuing possession to tie the game. Dylan Thompson
completed passes of 9, 19, and 15 yards, and Kenny Miles added runs of 1 and 11 yards to set
the Gamecocks up at the Clemson 13-yard line. Thompson then connected with Ellington for a
13-yard scoring strike to cap the seven-play, 63-yard scoring drive and knot the game at 7-7.
Clemson fired back with a quick scoring drive to regain the lead. Roderick McDowell broke
free for a 32-yard run down the sideline. On the next play, Boyd lofted the ball to DeAndre
Hopkins for a 43-yard touchdown pass, giving the Tigers a 14-7 advantage at the 1:22 mark of
the first quarter.
The Gamecocks cut Clemson’s lead to 14-10 late in the second quarter, as Yates drilled a
27-yard field goal to cap a 12-play, 79-yard drive at the 2:40 mark. On the drive, Thompson was
5-for-6 for 53 yards and had 27 yards on the ground.
Thompson took control on the opening possession of the second half and guided South
Carolina on a 10-play, 85-yard scoring drive. On third and 16 from the Clemson 34, Thompson
found Sanders across the middle, and Sanders shed a tackle and raced to the end zone for a
34-yard touchdown reception to give the Gamecocks a 17-14 lead with 11:48 remaining in the
third stanza. Thompson completed four passes for 79 yards on the drive.
The teams then exchanged field goals. Yates extended South Carolina’s lead on its next pos-
session with a 43-yard field goal to give the Gamecocks a 20-14 lead at the 6:56 mark of the third
quarter. Clemson’s Chandler Catanzaro answered on the ensuing possession with a 37-yard field
goal to trim South Carolina’s lead to 20-17 with 5:07 left in the quarter.

TAMPA, Fla. -- Dylan
Thompson’s 32-yard touchdown
pass to Bruce Ellington with 11
seconds remaining lifted South
Carolina (11-2) to a 33-28 victory
over Michigan (8-5) to win the
2013 Outback Bowl.
Trailing 28-27 with 3:29
remaining in the game, Caro-
lina made one final drive. Connor
Shaw converted a 4th & 3 on the
South Carolina 37 with a 6-yard
slant pass to Ace Sanders and fol-
lowed that up with completions of
6, 8 and 6, all to Sanders to earn
two more first downs. Shaw left
the game after the fourth comple-
tion to Sanders as he was nicked
up, resulting in Thompson enter-
ing the contest. Thompson moved
the Gamecocks down to the Michigan 32-yardline with 20 seconds remaining. After
spiking the ball to stop the clock, Thompson took the next snap and unleashed a perfect
strike to Ellington near the goal line. The Gamecock wide receiver made his way into the
end zone to give the Gamecocks a 5-point lead with just seconds remaining.
The back and forth affair saw the duo of Shaw and Thompson deliver for Carolina.
Shaw finished 18-for-26 for 224 yards in the air and a pair of touchdowns and added 96
yards rushing. Thompson was 7-for-10 for 117 yards and two scores.
Sanders caught 9 passes for 92 yards with two touchdown receptions as well as a
63-yard punt return for a touchdown en route to MVP honors.
The Gamecocks needed just three plays to find the end zone. Damiere Byrd got
behind the Wolverine secondary and Shaw connected with him for a 56-yard scoring
strike to give the Gamecocks a 7-0 lead less than two minutes into the game.
Michigan trimmed the lead to 7-3 with a 39-yard field goal by Brendan Gibbons.
After the Carolina defense pushed the Wolverines back to their own 9-yard line with
a sack by Aldrick Fordham, Michigan punted to All-SEC return man Sanders, who
weaved his way 63 yards to the end zone, giving the Gamecocks a 14-3 advantage.
The Wolverines answered with an 11-play, 75-yard scoring drive capped by a 5-yard
pass from Devin Gardner to Drew Dileo, cutting South Carolina’s lead to 14-10.
The Gamecocks regained their 11-point lead quickly with a four-play, 75-yard touch-
down drive. Thompson found Nick Jones across the middle for a 70-yard pass to set
Carolina up at the Michigan 4. From there Thompson rolled right and found Sanders
open in the end zone to give the Gamecocks a 21-10 lead with 10:54 left in the half.
A 40-yard field goal by Gibbons closed the gap to 21-13 heading into intermission.
Michigan got a 52-yard field goal from Matt Wile, then went on a 10-play, 65-yard
scoring drive capped by a 10-yard touchdown pass from Gardner to Jeremy Gallon to
take a 22-21 heading into the final stanza.
After a very questionable first down was awarded to the Wolverines, Jadeveon
Clowney made a big defensive play. Clowney forced and recovered a fumble by tail-
back Vincent Smith giving the Gamecocks the ball on the Michigan 31-yardline. South
Carolina quickly struck then as Shaw completed a 31-yard touchdown pass to Sanders
as the Gamecocks reclaimed a 27-22 lead.
Michigan answered on its ensuing drive to take a 28-27 lead. An 11-play 64-yard
drive took up over four minutes on the clock and was capped by a 17-yard pass from
Gardner to Gallon, his second touchdown reception of the game.

* — South Carolina fielded its first football team in 1892, and for
the first three seasons no head coach was designated. The all-time
won-lost-tie record includes those three seasons. No football was
played in 1893, and in 1906 the trustees abolished the sport for
one season.

Sterling Sharpe, who wore No. 2, concluded his career as the school’s
all-time leading receiver with 169 catches for 2,497 yards and 17
touchdowns. Sharpe had his jersey retired following the 1987 regular
season. He became only the second Gamecock to have his jersey
retired while he was still active at the school. Sharpe was a first-round
draft pick by the Green Bay Packers in 1988.
Running back Steve Wadiak, who wore No. 37 for Carolina from 1948-
51, was the first to have his number retired, after a tragic automobile
accident claimed his life. Wadiak, who still appears throughout the
South Carolina record book, was the school’s all-time rushing leader
for 28 years after his senior season. Wadiak, who rushed for 2,878
yards in his career, had his mark passed by Rogers in 1980. Wadiak led
the team in scoring and rushing all four years he played. His number
was retired in 1951.
1980 Heisman Trophy winner George Rogers had his No. 38 jersey
retired during halftime ceremonies at Carolina’s final 1980 home game.
Rogers was the first South Carolina player to have his jersey retired
while still active at the school. Rogers was the first player chosen in the
1981 NFL Draft by the New Orleans Saints.
Center Mike Johnson, No. 56, became gravely ill before the start of
his junior season and the illness cut short a potentially great football
career. Johnson had finished his sophomore campaign as the regular
center. His number was retired following his death in 1965.
