SEC fines South Carolina for field storming after blowout victory over Tennessee
By Riley Gates
The South Carolina Gamecocks shocked the college football world on Saturday by hanging 63 points on Tennessee and knocking the Volunteers out of the College Football Playoff picture. After the game, South Carolina head coach Shane Beamer took a few playful jabs at the media gathered because of their predictions for the game.
“First of all, y’alls predictions for this game were about the worst I’ve ever seen,” Beamer joked. “I read some of them in the hotel today, what y’all picked and y’all couldn’t have been more off. Just what a great night for our players, our coaches, our staff, our organization, our university, our state, the city of Columbia. What a night. I mean, I don’t even know where to begin. I’ve been saying it every week, y’all think I’m crazy. We got a good football team. And we showed it tonight. I get it, we played like crap last week.”

It is easy to see why many picked against the Gamecocks against the country’s No. 5 team. South Carolina had lost two of its last three games, one a 13-point loss to Missouri and the next a 32-point loss to Florida. The Gamecocks’ offense was struggling and putting up 63 on Tennessee seemed unthinkable. But Spencer Rattler thought otherwise.
Rattler, the Oklahoma transfer quarterback, had his best game as a Gamecock. Rattler went 30-of-37 for 438 yards and six touchdowns in the air. Rattler had a special connection with Antwane Wells all night, as the duo connected 11 times for 177 yards on the night, an average of 16.1 yards per catch.
