SEC statement: Gamecocks stay perfect in league play with win over Missouri

Keyshawn Bryant saw an opening and attacked. With an extra day of rest, energy was flowing out of South Carolina’s electric freshman on the game’s opening possession. He elevated above a taller Missouri defender and tried throwing down on the 6-foot-10 Jeremiah Tilmon. The dunk attempt missed, but Colonial Life Arena appreciated the effort — and got the message.

The new-look Gamecocks were on display Sunday in front of their best crowd of the 2019 calendar year. A late schedule change didn’t stop the momentum of one of the SEC’s hottest teams.

USC asserted itself as the aggressor early and often en route to an 85-75 win over Mizzou.
