11/22/25 - QB LaNorris Sellers, rSo/2028, South Carolina, (DS#3 QB)

LaNorris Sellers ran for two touchdowns and threw for two more, including a 75-yard strike to his younger brother Jayden on the game's first snap, in South Carolina's 51-7 rout of Coastal Carolina on Saturday night. The Gamecocks (4-7) were coming in off a disheartening 31-30 loss at No. 3 Texas A&M where they led 30-3 at halftime. But the players didn't let that collapse beat them once more, overwhelming the Chanticleers (6-5) to lead 20-0 less than eight minutes in. Sellers, whose escapability, strong arm and running skill had him atop many preseason Heisman Trophy lists, showed off all of it in ending South Carolina's five-game losing streak. He finished 16 of 20 passing for 274 yards and led the Gamecocks with 82 yards rushing before heading to the bench after the third quarter. Sellers hooked up with his speedy, younger brother Jayden Sellers on the first snap for a short pass then broke for a 75-yard TD. The elder Sellers pushed through for a 2-yard score on the team's second drive.

After Coastal Carolina passer Tad Hudson fumbled while getting hit by lineman Bryan Thomas Jr. deep in Chants' territory, tight end Brady Hunt scored three plays later for a 20-0 lead. Coastal, of the Sun Belt Conference, could not match up with an opponent that entered with a five-game losing streak and 1-7 record in the Southeastern Conference. South Carolina had 419 of its 579 yards by halftime. Its defense held Coastal Carolina to 46 yards rushing, far below its 194 average coming in. The Chanticleers ended the shutout with a blocked punt by receiver Jameson Tucker, who picked it up and went 17 yards for the score with less than 10 minutes left to play. Jayden Sellers had four catches for 127 yards while Hunt finished with a pair of rushing touchdowns. The Gamecocks played without leading receiver Nyck Harbor and defensive line starter Dylan Stewart. Harbor went to the hospital as a precaution after hurting his chest late in the Texas A&M loss. Stewart warmed up but felt back pain and was held out. - South Carolina/AP College Football
