And they ran they ball 47 times for 144 yards, a modest total, but nearly 3倍になる the 53 yards they 普通の/平均(する)d in the first three games.

But when South Carolina needed something, they turned to Rattler, the Oklahoma 移転 who in his past seven games has finally shown why he was once one of the Sooners' most 高度に touted 新採用するs.

Rattler has thrown just 33 incomplete passes in four games this season, and 20 of them (機の)カム last week against No. 1 Georgia.

Rattler credits new 不快な/攻撃 調整者/コーディネーター Dowell Loggians for his 正確 "The 罪/違反, the 計画/陰謀 we have. It´s that simple," he said.

After three weeks of 続けざまに猛撃するing the ball on the ground with inconsistent results, Mississippi 明言する/公表する (2-2, 0-2) returned to the 肉親,親類d of 空気/公表する (警察の)手入れ,急襲 passing attack the Bulldogs used under coach マイク Leach, who died in December.

Will Rogers threw for a career best 487 yards on 30-of-48 passing with a touchdown and an interception. Lideatrick Griffin 始める,決める a school 記録,記録的な/記録する with 256 yards receiving on seven catches, 含むing a 65-yard touchdown.

It was an encouraging 遠出 after a 41-14 loss last week to LSU and Rogers said the Bulldogs can build on it.

THE TAKEAWAY

Mississippi 明言する/公表する: The loss put the Bulldogs in a 穴を開ける in the SEC. They will need to find two SEC 勝利,勝つs somewhere to continue their streak of 13 straight seas ons going to a bowl. Maybe getting 支援する to passing is the answer? Mississippi 明言する/公表する 伸び(る)d 519 yards, by far their best against a Football Bowl Subdivision team this season.

South Carolina: The Gamecocks needed a 勝利,勝つ in a 堅い September and got it. With Clemson left on the 非,不,無-会議/協議会 schedule, South Carolina could need four SEC 勝利,勝つs to get to a bowl. And if Rattler continues to play at this high of a level, that is 井戸/弁護士席 in reach.

HONORING JEFFERY

The Gamecocks retired receiver Alshon Jeffery's No. 1 jersey at halftime.

"He´s someone that I love and care for 深く,強烈に," Beamer said.

The coach also used Jeffery's story to make a pitch.

"For all 新採用するs in the 明言する/公表する of South Carolina, learn from Alshon, stay home and play for the University of South Carolina," Beamer said.
