Pretty much says it all
''Two things can be true at the same time. One is that it was brutal to watch Sellers leave the game after Langston Patterson got a clean shot on him, which led to a targeting ejection. For South Carolina, winning that game without the heart and soul of that team would’ve been a challenge against any SEC squad, and it didn’t help that Nyck Harbor also left this one. The Gamecocks had to throw their script out the window once Luke Doty came in.
But what that shouldn’t take away from what Clark Lea’s squad did in an elite atmosphere. Just as it did in the previous week against Virginia Tech, it silenced that building. That wasn’t just Diego Pavia, either. It was Steven Gregory and Clark Lea dialing up a game plan that had South Carolina’s offense completely lost both with and without Sellers.
Vanderbilt looks like a better version of the 7-6 team that shocked the college football world last year. That’s a scary thought for a host of SEC teams that were banking on some sort of regression. South Carolina, on the other hand, looks like it’s got “regression” written all over it with a daunting schedule that awaits.''
