COLUMBIA, S.C. — LaNorris Sellers led No. 19 South Carolina to a dominant 56-12 victory over Wofford on Saturday night, throwing for 307 yards and three touchdowns while completing 23 of 27 passes. Despite a few mistakes, including two turnovers and some penalties, the Gamecocks wrapped up the game without any serious injuries and let many starters rest for most of the fourth quarter.
The redshirt freshman Sellers is making a name for himself as one of the top quarterbacks in the conference. He showed good mobility, averaging over 4 yards on his 13 rushing attempts. Raheim Sanders contributed with 72 rushing yards, while Dalevon Campbell stood out with five receptions for 120 yards.
Wofford started the game strong, taking an early 3-0 lead and even intercepting Sellers on his first drive. However, they have now lost 18 consecutive games to South Carolina, with their last win dating back to 1917. For their efforts, the Terriers will receive $600,000 for playing in Columbia.
Looking ahead, South Carolina is eyeing a boost in the College Football Playoff rankings, as some teams above them suffered losses. A victory against their rival Clemson next week could strengthen their case for a playoff spot, as the Gamecocks look to improve from their current record. Meanwhile, Wofford will not make it to the FCS playoffs, which will be revealed on Sunday.
