South Carolina football superlatives at the midpoint of the season:
Offensive MVP
It’s tempting to make an argument for Deebo Samuel here. The junior wide receiver hasn’t played for three-plus games, and he still leads the team in all-purpose yardage by more than 100 yards. Samuel had 474 total yards and six touchdowns in less than three games. Bryan Edwards is the active leader in all-purpose yards with 368.
However, because Samuel has now played less than half the season, the vote here goes to quarterback Jake Bentley. The sophomore is completing 60.6 percent of his passes for 1,456 yards, 12 touchdowns and four interceptions.
