It wasn't pretty, but a win is a win right? The critics raved:

Brother [Stephen Garcia] needs to get rid of the ball once in a while – ’Cocks going to lead the SEC in sacks allowed again at this rate. -peachy rex

You know that line in NCAA video games where Corso jokes about letting the defense play offense? I’m up for it at this point. -cocknfire

This game has made my eyes bleed. -49er16

Whew.. I’m glad I went to clean the kitchen after halftime. -Richard Pittman

But for whatever it's worth, the SEC is 1-0 in non-conference play, and that's certainly better than the opposite being true. South Carolina's defense did an admirable job, but the Gamecock offense has some work to do before they play Georgia next week.
