What a start from the South Carolina Gamecocks!

Speedy returner Xavier Legette was not going to be denied on the first play of the game vs. Texas A&M. He made a house call, returning the opening kickoff 100-yards for 6.

Legette broke quite a few tackles on his touchdowns scamper, tiptoeing the sideline for the score. The Aggies’ poor tackling didn’t help things.

 South Carolina has already made a statement this season against Kentucky, another against Texas A&M is just what the doctor ordered. The Gamecocks are looking to lock up a postseason bowl appearance with a win Saturday followed by one of Missouri, Vanderbilt and Florida.

Safe to say they reach the postseason regardless. Still, a strong bowl bid is very much on the table with a win over the Aggies.

Lot of game left. Let’s see if the Gamecocks have it in them.
