South Carolina secured a dramatic victory over Missouri with a final score of 34-30. LaNorris Sellers threw a game-winning touchdown pass to Rocket Sanders with just 15 seconds remaining, marking the Gamecocks' fourth consecutive win. This victory is notable as it is South Carolina's first win in a battle of AP Top 25 teams since September 13, 2014. The game featured four lead changes in the last five minutes, showcasing clutch performances from both teams. Missouri had initially taken the lead with a touchdown pass from Brady Cook to Luther Burden on a fourth-and-5 play with 1:10 left and a subsequent 2-point conversion to make it 30-27. However, South Carolina responded swiftly, driving down the field in less than a minute to secure the win. In Missouri's last two games, there were 43 points scored in the final 3:33. The Gamecocks are now 7-3 overall and 5-3 in the SEC, and they will host Wofford next week.
