South Carolina Gamecocks Stumble Against Ole Miss Rebels at Home

In a challenging Week 6 matchup, the South Carolina Gamecocks faced off against the Ole Miss Rebels at Williams-Brice Stadium, marking a pivotal moment in their season. The game concluded with the Gamecocks falling to a 3-2 record after a tough loss, while the Rebels improved their standing to 5-1. The final score stood at 27-3 in favor of the visiting team.

Game Highlights

The South Carolina defense had moments of resilience despite the unfavorable outcome. Dylan Stewart made an impactful play with a sack and three tackles for loss, totaling eight yards lost for the Rebels. T.J. Sanders also contributed significantly on defense with seven tackles and one tackle for loss, showcasing his ability to read and react to plays effectively.

On special teams, Kai Kroeger's punting was a highlight for the Gamecocks, as he averaged over 51 yards across four attempts, including a long punt of 61 yards. However, his efforts were not enough to shift momentum in favor of South Carolina.
