The South Carolina Gamecocks take a lead into halftime against the Vanderbilt Commodores. The Gamecocks are showing what South Carolina football is about getting both the running and passing game involved early on.
Jake Bentley has connected on two deep passes to Shi Smith, and Rico Dowdle has been absolutely outstanding in the run game.
If you had checked out our what to watch for column, establishing the run game was on the top of the list. Dowdle has been great in the early going of the game. It is great to see South Carolina actually trying to establish the run game, and especially early on.
