A dominant performance on both sides of the ball for South Carolina. Now heading to the bye week, the Gamecocks have an opportunity to get better and healthy before the meat of their schedule.

A week after a heartbreaking loss to LSU, Ashford steps in for LaNorris Sellers at quarterback and accounts for 376 yards of offense. USC improves to 3-1 heading into the bye week.

The South Carolina football team utilized new faces in its 50-7 win over Akron. After injuries to starters like LaNorris Sellers, the Gamecocks hope to regain some of their starters in the next home game.
