Great Game Silva!! Wow! This game started off slow but finished in a flurry and luckily for the Gamecocks they were able to come out on top in this one.
The Gamecocks led 7-0 at the half and added to their lead in the 3rd to go up 14-0 and it looked as though the Cocks would romp to an easy victory but that is when the Tigers decided to mount a comebacck and promptly scored a major to pull within 7 before tying it up in the 4th after an interception gave them pretty good field position.
The Gamecocks then had the ball and were working their way down the field before stalling at around mid-field and had to punt the ball back to the Tigers with about 1:30 left to play.
That's when the game really started to get interesting and would continue that way until the end...
Ths Tigers started at their own 18 yard line and started moving up the field making great plays and getting to the Cocks 30 yard line with mere seconds to play...one more play and then a chance at a game winning FG....but wait....FUMBLE and the Cocks recover! with 13 ticks left on the clock. The teams then traded long INTs and it was off to OT.
The Tigers had the rock first and got down to with in the 5 yrd line when on the next play...FUMBLE...but they recovered and scored to go up 21-14.
The Cocks promptly called a pass play and scored the tying TD and then on the next possession scored in 2 plays to go up 28-21.
Last chance for the Tigers who got to just outside the 10 and had a 4th and 2 when Boyd steps back, throws and NO ONE IS THERE!
GAME OVER the Gamecocks win and the stadium erupts after collectively having to hold their breath on the last play.
Gamecocks improve to 3-3 on the season.
