Rattler, Legette keep South Carolina bowl hopes alive with 17-14 win over Kentucky

Associated Press  

The AP Top 25 college football poll is back every week throughout the season! “That was huge, just to get us going,” South Carolina coach Shane Beamer said. “Right now it’s like the playoffs,” said South Carolina defensive back Nick Emmanwori who had an end zone interception. “It’s not a good recipe to win on the road with critical penalties and turnovers,” said Kentucky coach Mark Stoops, whose team turned the ball over three times and had seven penalties for 52 yards. South Carolina: The Gamecocks often maligned defense held Kentucky to 296 yards, but even more importantly forced three turnovers and held Kentucky to its fewest points this season outside of Georgia.
