South Carolina scored 10 unanswered points in the fourth quarter and defeated Texas A&M 17–9 at home Saturday, November 7, extending its winning streak to four games.

The Gamecocks trailed 9–7 after three quarters before producing the only scoring of the final period. Their defense kept Texas A&M out of the end zone throughout the game and protected the eight-point lead on the last play.

LaNorris Sellers completed 20 of 31 passes for 251 yards and a touchdown. He also contributed 34 rushing yards and a touchdown, staying in the game as South Carolina held off the Aggies’ final challenge.

Texas A&M drove the length of the field late and faced fourth-and-goal from South Carolina’s nine-yard line on the final snap. Marcel Reed’s pass fell incomplete, ending the comeback attempt.

The win continued South Carolina’s recovery from a 2–3 start. The Gamecocks had lost consecutive games to Mississippi State and Kentucky before beginning their current four-game run.

South Carolina next faces Arkansas before a matchup with Georgia two weeks after Saturday’s victory.
