RTR goes 'Behind Enemy Line' with Ericka Brockish of Garnet and Cocky
Ericka gives RTR an inside look into the Gamecocks' team and fanbase.
Q: Grabbing Rocket Sanders from the portal was a great get for the Gamecocks. Tell me about what SC got in the former Razorback.
A: South Carolina got an absolute workhorse from Arkansas when they got Rocket Sanders out of the transfer portal. He is a player who refuses to go down after the first hit, and when the Gamecocks need yards or a first down, they know they can put the ball in his hands, and he will go and get it.
Q: Kyle Kennard and Dylan Stewart are some of the best Edge rushers in the country. Last season, Clemson struggled to protect the QB, but now, they rank 17th in the nation in terms of sacks allowed. How do you see that matchup playing out?
A: Kyle Kennard and Dylan Stewart are absolute dawgs on the line, and once they get going, it is so hard to stop them. Clemson will look to put extra guys on them on the offensive line, but they are just opening themselves up to be beaten by someone else on the defensive line because South Carolina's pass rush is truly something else.
