One of the most impressive victories across the SEC this season was South Carolina’s 63-38 win over Tennessee on Nov. 19.

It was one of quarterback Spencer Rattler’s best games of the year as he completed 30-of-37 passes for 438 yards and 6 touchdowns. Gamecocks head coach Shane Beamer explained in an OutKick appearance mentally how his team was able to pull off the upset.

“I knew we were going to be alright against Tennessee from a mentality standpoint that night at practice. It was spirited… it was an absolute war out there. Spirited, energetic, you would have thought we we were playing for the national championship that night and it was everyone.”

South Carolina ended its season on a two-game winning streak between the victory over the Volunteers and the Clemson Tigers.
