In Game of My Life: South Carolina Gamecocks, several prominent South Carolina players of the past share their fondest single game experience and memories, largely in their own words, with authors Rick Scoppe and Charlie Bennett. Some of these games are the most memorable in school history, others with long-time rivals and others will seem ordinary, save for extraordinary personal meaning. In each case, it is the player who singles out the game, that moment in time which to him is the most defining of his Gamecocks football career. Each player has his own unique story, but together they weave a tapestry of South Carolina Gamecock football history. Heisman Trophy winner George Rodgers as well as other legendary Gamecocks like Alex Hawkins, pony-tailed QB Steve Tannyhill, record-setting QB Todd Ellis, Dan Reaves-a Gamecock QB who went on to a distinguished NFL career as a running back with the Dallas Cowboys and then a Super Bowl head coach-RB Brandon Bennett, TE Willie Scott and RB Rob DeBoer are profiled in this unique book which takes the reader down memory lane, but will also provide an in-depth look into the men and games that helped shape and build the Gamecock football heritage.
