Blake Mitchell….seems he waits until desperation is served at dinner to show up.
He completed 31-of-45 passes for 290 yards – the most by a Gamecocks quarterback this season – and led USC to touchdowns on three consecutive series spanning the third and fourth quarters.
Oh and two other players that played great games…tailback Cory Boyd and receiver Kenny McKinley. Boyd rushed for a career-high 160 yards on 20 carries, while McKinley tied Zola Davis’ school record with 14 receptions for a career-high 151 yards.
Let’s all hope that this kind of performance shows up every week now. No more bad offensive showings please, 8 quarters is enough for Spurrier and me.
USC fell a game behind Georgia and a half-game back of Tennessee with two conference games remaining. The Gamecocks travel to Arkansas this week before playing host to Florida on Nov. 10. After an open week, USC closes the regular season Nov. 24 against Clemson.
