Social media reacts to Texas A&M's 17-9 loss to South Carolina

Texas A&M football's offensive struggles continued Saturday as the Aggies fell 17-9 to No. 21 South Carolina at Williams-Brice Stadium. They failed to score a touchdown for the third time in SEC play this season. The loss leaves Texas A&M (4-5, 1-5 SEC) needing two victories in its final three games to become bowl eligible. Despite another disappointing offensive performance, Texas A&M had opportunities to pull off the road upset. The Aggies entered the fourth quarter leading 9-7 behind three field goals from kicker David Olano. However, South Carolina scored 10 unanswered points in the final quarter, including a 41-yard touchdown run from quarterback LaNorris Sellers to secure the victory. Quarterback Marcel Reed completed 25 of 43 passes for 251 yards, while running back Rueben Owens II rushed for 137 yards on 19 carries. Despite moving the football, the Aggies couldn't finish drives in the end zone. Texas A&M's defense kept the game competitive, but the offense's continued struggles proved costly. With another SEC loss and the team's postseason hopes hanging in the balance, frustration surrounding coach Mike Elko and the Aggies continued to grow across social media. Here's how the internet reacted to Texas A&M's loss to South Carolina.

Where South Carolina football stands in the latest Top 25 polls

At this point in the season, there’s only one poll that truly matters. It is the College Football Playoff rankings — which are released every Tuesday — that determine what programs get into the field of 12. Still, other polls are a good barometer of how teams are viewed on a week-to-week basis. And, well, Gamecocks (6-3, 4-3 SEC) will get a bump after their 17-9 win over Texas A&M on Saturday night. After being unranked in the USA Today Coaches Poll last week, the Gamecocks jumped into the rankings for the first time this season, coming in at No. 24. South Carolina also moved up in the AP poll , vaulting up three spots to No. 20. The Gamecocks were ranked No. 21 in the opening CFP rankings last week. One thing to note: In last Tuesday’s College Football Playoff rankings, South Carolina was the highest-ranked three-loss team in America. That will likely change this week. In the AP poll, for example, Oregon (No. 18 // 6-3) and Ole Miss (No. 19 // 6-3) were ranked ahead of the Gamecocks, while fellow three-loss teams Ohio State (No. 21) and LSU (No. 24) were right behind them.

For the last 16 years, the Columbia pop-rock-folk duo Prettier Than Matt has had an unofficial motto. Jeff Pitts (vocals, guitar, percussion) and Jessica Skinner Sims (vocals, ukulele) will inevitably be playing somewhere multiple times a week, whether it’s a set of covers at a “menu venue” or an evening of originals in a club. And since they’re always around, it is inevitable that locals are eventually going to have to deal with them. “Jessica always makes the joke that you can’t run away from us if you live here,” said Pitts in a recent Free Times interview. “We’re going to find you wherever...

A Columbia woman was battling a rare aggressive cancer. Then something worse came along.

Learning his wife was in a coma from a rare complication of a mosquito-borne virus was, in an odd way, a relief for Oliver Thompson. He feared her leukemia had spread. "It was good news," he said. "The other option was the cancer had made it into her brainstem and there was nothing they can do about it."
