COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) - South Carolina
quarterback Connor Shaw ran for 88 yards and two touchdowns to lead
South Carolina to a 17-12 win over Florida on Saturday.
Freshman Brandon Miles ran for 120 yards as the No. 15 Gamecocks (8-2,
6-2 Southeastern) pounded the Gators (5-5, 3-5) and left themselves a
chance to make it to a second straight SEC title game.
South Carolina led 14-3 after Shaw's sneak just before the half, but
Florida rallied. A 2-yard touchdown run by Jacoby Brissett made it
14-12, but the Gators never threatened again.
The win gives South Carolina six SEC victories for the first time since
joining the league in 1992. But the Gamecocks will need Georgia to lose
to either Auburn on Saturday or Kentucky next week to win the SEC East.
