When Sawyer Smith joined the Kentucky Wildcats, he was leaving a situation at Troy where his head coach left. He’d stepped in for an injured starter last year, going 5-2 and leading the Trojans to a 10-win season.

His path as a grad transfer in Lexington seemed to be sitting out a year behind Terry Wilson and stepping in next year. They Wilson went down, and suddenly, the offense the Gamecocks will face this week is in his hands.

“He has legs,” USC coach Will Muschamp said. “I wouldn’t say he’s Terry Wilson, but he has legs. He’s been able to extend plays for them. He was a really good runner at Troy. So, we’ve done a lot of research as far as those things are concerned.”

Wilson ran for 547 yards last season, while Smith had about 199 in his half-season of play. Smith had also put up respectable numbers through the air, with 1,669 yards, 14 touchdowns and six interceptions.

IMO, this is an absolute must win for two mediocre teams, at least to this point. Unfortunately, this is an away game for us. I think we win in a close one but i’m not going to bet my farm on it. My farm is 1/2 acre and had 3 tomato plants this year and one old cat.

We are not that good this season but I too like our chances against South Carolina.

Didn't take long for Auburn to jump out on Miss St. State down 14-0 in 1st 5 minutes of game!
