Watch South Carolina’s Mario Anderson hurdle Florida defender for touchdown
Mario Anderson is quickly becoming a fan favorite at South Carolina.
The Newberry College running back transfer made another spectacular play on Saturday in the first half against Florida.
Anderson caught a short pass from Spencer Rattler and proceeded to take in for a 20-yard touchdown, hurdling the Gators’ Miguel Mitchell for the score to tie the game at 21-21.
Anderson, who wasn’t a factor early in the season, has scored a touchdown in three straight games for the Gamecocks. He had 90 total yards late in the first half.
He’s started two straight games at tailback for the Gamecocks. He also had a 75-yard touchdown run in USC’s 41-20 road loss Sept. 30 to Tennessee.
