VIDEO OF THE DAY

Sights and Sounds from the win over UAB! Thank you, fans, for a great atmosphere, let's keep it up this weekend in the SEC home opener vs. Missouri!







ROOSTER CROWS

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 (1977-80) and Harold Green (1986-89) for first in school history in rushing touchdowns with 31.

Led by freshman Kayla Lampe and senior Chelsea France, the Gamecocks placed seventh out of 24 teams at Percy Warner Park at the Commodore Classic/SEC Preview meet.
Freshman Mary Fouse ran the gutsiest race, as one of her spikes was stepped on less than 800 meters into the race. She ran over three miles barefoot to finish the race as the team's fifth runner, (23:12).



FAN PHOTO OF THE DAY

Today's fan photo is from Caroll and Brooke Freeman of Chesterfield, SC.  Their yellow lab Jagger loves to support the Gamecocks - and looks so distinguished doing it!
