South Carolina’s dominant football game against Towson got paused by lightning—literally—just before 9:10 PM with 12 minutes left in the third quarter. Up 24-3, the Gamecocks were in control, but safety protocols forced a halt. With lightning still in the area, delays could stretch to 45 minutes or more, pushing a possible restart to 11 PM.
