The Volunteers of the University of Tennessee were no match for the University of South Carolina Gamecocks Saturday evening as the Gamecocks totally dominated the game and won by a score of 27-6.
While Tennessee has struggled this season, South Carolina has managed to pull together its fledgling offense to strive for some balance with its nationally-recognized defense.
The Gamecocks are now 6-3 on the season.
Meanwhile, the Tigers of Clemson University went to Boston College and walked away with their 4th win of the season, a victory that would prove to be sweet to Interim Head Coach Dabo Swinney, who is attempting to salvage what he can of a near-disastrous season that has seen most of Clemson's hopes dashed.
The Tigers move to 4-4 on the season and still have an outside shot at a bowl game, although their hopes for the ACC championship have been all but doomed.
Swinney still has a shot at becoming permanent head coach at the end of this season, but he must prove he can win most if not all of the remaining games on the schedule--a very tall order.
Next Saturday the Gamecocks play host to Arkansas in another SEC matchup, and the Tigers travel to Florida State for another ACC game.
