The South Carolina Gamecocks used a nasty defensive effort, combined with an efficient and mistake free performance from quarterback Steven Garcia to upset #4 Mississippi 16-10 at Williams-Brice Stadium in Columbia, SC. The Gamecocks ended a 22 game losing streak against top 5 ranked teams, while Ole Miss saw their eight game winning streak come to an end. The Rebels dropped their sixth straight SEC opener.
The South Carolina Gamecocks used a nasty defensive effort, combined with an efficient and mistake free performance from quarterback Steven Garcia to upset #4 Mississippi 16-10 at Williams-Brice Stadium in Columbia, SC. The Gamecocks ended a 22 game losing streak against top 5 ranked teams, while Ole Miss saw their eight game winning streak come to an end. The Rebels dropped their sixth straight SEC opener. College football betting enthusiasts who took the Gamecocks as +4 home underdogs were financially rewarded with South Carolina's outright victory. After falling behind 3-0 after the first quarter, South Carolina led 6-3 at halftime and never trailed again. After the game, Gamecocks QB Garcia said that it wasnt the prettiest game but the victory negated that: "It was a pretty ugly win, but a win and we'll take it every time." South Carolina coach Steve Spurrier expressed a similar sentiment: "It was good to get a win when everybody watches. It was good for all Gamecocks. We thought we could beat them. Thought it was a toss-up game. But the way it turned out, the way our defense played, 16 points was enough." In particular, the defense completely shut down highly touted Ole Miss QB Jevan Snead. Snead finished with a mere 107 yards and made no excuses after the game: "We really hurt ourselves and we continued to do it all throughout the game, into the last series. It's tough. Ole Miss entered the game with their highest national ranking since 1970, when Archie Manning prowled the Rebel backfield. Despite that, head coach Houston Nutt didnt sense any undue pressure on his team before the game: "I never did sense that we were feeling a lot of pressure. Now it is what it is. You've lost your first conference game. You've got to work hard and win the next conference game." Rebel offensive lineman Bradley Sowell, meanwhile, contradicted his coachs observation by expressing his relief: "I'm glad it's over with so everyone can just stop talking about it. The Gamecocks improved their 2009 college football record to 3-1 (1-0 SEC). Theyll host FCS opponent South Carolina State in Columbia next weekend before resuming their SEC schedule the following week against the University of Kentucky. Theyll take to the road on October 17th for what figures to be a tough game against the University of Alabama. Ole Miss is right back into SEC play next week, facing Vanderbilt on the road in Nashville, Tennessee.
