The South Carolina Gamecocks have won 11 games for the first time in school history, downing the Nebraska Cornhuskers, 23-13, in the 2012 Capital One Bowl. Considering the milestone, it's a curious assortment of players to have done it. No Stephen Garcia, no Marcus Lattimore, and only three quarters worth of Alshon Jeffery.
South Carolina Vs. Nebraska Final Score, Capital One Bowl: Alshon Jeffery Leaves Win Early
Jeffery was ejected after getting into a tiff on the sideline, meaning the biggest stars left on the field for Carolina were ... defensive ends Melvin Ingram and Jadeveon Clowney? It's already a whole new era for the Cocks.
Connor Shaw finishes with 229 yards, but the name you'll remember from this game is Jeffery's. 148 yards and a touchdown, but what a way to go out.
