This weekend's Oklahoma vs. South Carolina game will be a personal homecoming for Spencer Rattler, whose college career bridged both programs. Rattler arrives at Williams-Brice Stadium as a NFL rookie with the New Orleans Saints, but his heart is still tied to Columbia. He has shown nothing but support for the Gamecocks since being on the bigger stage in the NFL. Rattlers excitement over the matchup is rooted in his own story. Once a five-star Oklahoma recruit, then benched midseason for Caleb Williams, he transferred to South Carolina, blossomed under Shane Beamer, and helped the Gamecocks to his signature wins.
