Jake Bentley says he doesn’t care how South Carolina’s offense moves the ball as long as it does so.

“Whatever it takes, for me,” the Gamecocks sophomore quarterback said. “Obviously, as a quarterback you like to throw it, throw a lot of touchdowns and have the really big numbers, but that's not really that important to me. Whatever it takes.”

Bentley is, sort of, getting his wish about throwing the ball. South Carolina (6-3 overall, 4-3 SEC) throws the ball on a higher percentage of its snaps than all but two teams in the conference. The Gamecocks have thrown the ball 279 times and run it 269 times so far this season.
