LaNorris Sellers: What an Improvement From Him Means to the Gamecocks and Himself

LaNorris Sellers enters the 2026 season as South Carolina’s starting quarterback for his third year, aiming to rebound after a difficult 2025. After an early win over Virginia Tech, Sellers was second in betting odds to win the Heisman, but his performance declined across major categories, including passing yards, completion percentage, passing touchdowns, and QBR, while throwing more interceptions. His rushing production also dropped sharply, with his rushing yards cut more than in half despite only 15 fewer attempts. South Carolina fell from nine wins in 2024 to four in 2025, with an injured, inexperienced offensive line contributing to the offense’s struggles, including allowing the third-most sacks nationally.
