South Carolina, somewhat improbably, won on Saturday night. The Gamecocks came out with a 34-30 victory over Missouri after blowing a 15-point lead and after twice giving up go-ahead touchdowns in the fourth quarter.

What looked like a remarkable Missouri football comeback flipped late, as South Carolina scored with 15 seconds left to down the Tigers.

More times than not, when South Carolina has found ways to win games this season, the defense has usually been the main reason why. But for one of the first times all year, the Gamecocks couldn’t count on their defense alone to get past Missouri on Saturday.
