That was a very strange football game.
The South Carolina Gamecocks looked like a toddler trying to eat fettuccine for the first half of football against the Tennessee Volunteers. Then, without much warning, they suddenly turned into a team capable of playing both offense and defense with some degree of competence. Down 21-9, with barely a glimmer of hope on offense and no ability to stop Jarrett Guarantano on third down, the Cocks mounted two lightning fast scoring drives (made possible by some great play from Deebo Samuel, Rico Dowdle, and ty’son Williams, as well as an absolute missile of a pass from Jake Bentley to Bryan Edwards), to pull even at 24 points apiece.
