South Carolina football won a rock fight of a game on Saturday. Shane Beamer and the Gamecocks beat Texas A&M 17-9 at home in Williams-Brice Stadium. With the win, No. 21 South Carolina is now 6-3 overall (4-3 SEC) on the year and on a four-game winning streak. The showing from South Carolina’s defense was the definition of “bend but don’t break” vs. the Aggies. USC gave up nearly 500 yards of offense but didn’t surrender a single touchdown in the game.
