New Captains Lead South Carolina's Comeback | South Carolina Gamecocks Football News

South Carolina football is poised for a fresh start after a rough 4-8 season, led by a new crop of captains including senior DB Gerald Kilgore and junior QB LaNorris Sellers—both proven performers with big stats. The team’s leadership also includes standout linebackers Fred Johnson and Shawn Murphy (who played at Alabama and FSU before joining SC), plus defensive back Peyton Williams and tight end Brady Hunt (a transfer from Ball State). With key numbers like Sellers’ 5K+ passing yards and 33 TDs, and Hunt’s 69 catches and 5 TDs, the Gamecocks are hungry to bounce back—and they kick things off against Kent State on Sept. 5 at 12:45 PM ET on the SEC Network.
