From Shaw to Sellers: South Carolina's legacy of quarterback toughness
The quarterback position in the SEC comes with its share of bumps and bruises, but down in Columbia, South Carolina, some of the most memorable QB performances have come from players who refused to let an injury write the ending. There is a particular kind of silence that falls over Williams-Brice Stadium when the starting quarterback doesn't get up. It's a moment every football fan recognizes. The crowd holds its breath, the stadium fall silent as teammates look toward the sideline, and suddenly the outcome of a football game takes a backseat to the health of the one player who is the heartbeat of the offense. And South Carolina fans experienced that moment again on Saturday against Texas A&M. LaNorris Sellers was taken down on a sack in the second quarter, losing a fumble, and grabbing his left ankle as he struggled to get back to his feet. Trainers helped him off the field, and he eventually made his way to the medical tent, and then to the locker room for further evaluation just before halftime. This is the play where LaNorris Sellers' ankle got hurt. Looks like the Aggies' 257-pound DE Sam M'Pemba landed on him pic.twitter.com/Me0bkZL2RV — Jordan
