Beamer ball time! Who all remembers the Frank Beamer-led Virginia Tech teams who always seemed to block a kick, get a turnover, or run some gadget play that actually worked? Shane Beamer apparently remembers very well and paid attention to his dad’s ways. The opponent Saturday night is not more talented than the Aggies, but they are gritty, opportunistic, and have a nose for the ball.
The Gamecocks rank top five in the nation in the following categories:
- Defensive TDs (3)
- Interceptions (10)
- Total Turnovers (16)
- Blocked Punts (3)
- Blocked kicks (3)
- *** Unofficial stat - Swinging gate plays that work (1)
South Carolina also has a fair share of issues that the Aggies can exploit.
