ESPN’s “College GameDay” breaks a 10-year anniversary with its site in Week 3.

South Carolina’s defense was excellent against the Wildcats, as it limited its SEC opponent to 183 total yards and forced two turnovers. The Gamecocks’ offense did just about enough as well, with starting quarterback LaNorris Sellers completing 11 of 15 passes for 159 yards with two touchdowns to one interception in his first year.

South Carolina’s stout defense will have to figure out a plan around Tigers quarterback Garrett Nussmeier, who has 610 passing yards and eight touchdowns against two interceptions in his first two starts this season.
