After the conclusion of https://www.storeprocapitals.com/ the Arkansas game, where the Gamecocks lost 44-30, Coach Shane Beamer talked to media who made the trip out to Fayetteville, Arkansas. While the game didnt go the way Coach Beamer wouldve wanted, he expre sed optimism in what the Gamecocks showed and the potential is if they continue to progre s:I think we got a chance to be a really good football team if we can continue to get better we talked all week that were gonna face adversity here at some point, and thats when we get stronger as a football team, and I thought we showed that in a lot of ways today.While Arkansas went up 19 points with 12:09 left in the game, South Carolina at two different https://www.storeprocapitals.com/Riley_Sutter_Jersey.NHL points after that cut the lead down to 2 scores, and had some chances to make the game interesting, but an interception thrown by Spencer Rattler in the Hogs red zone and a fumble by MarShawn Lloyd prematurely ended two Gamecock drives.During his opening remarks at his pre s conference, Coach Beamer made no bones about it regarding the two costly turnovers late in the game:Obviously we cant turn the ball over, especially in the fourth quarter at least two turnovers in the fourth quarter and you cant win football games on the road in the SEC doing that .Another talking point from this coaching staff going forward will more than likely involve taking advantage of opportunities when they present themselves in hard-thought football games, which the Gamecocks didnt do enough of against Arkansas. The Gamecock offense had multiple deep shot attempts in the game which sailed over the head of the receivers while the defense managed to force sixteen 3rd down attempts for the Hogs, but allowed them to convert nine of them leading to the Razorbacks garnering a nine minute advantage in time of po se sion.When asked how frustrating it might have been not being able to convert on the chances that were presented, Coach Beamer conveyed that the Gamecocks certainly had their chances but just werent able to get the job done enough times.Yeah, very frustrating . We felt like we had a great advantage with our receivers and tight ends against https://www.storeprocapitals.com/Alex_Ovechkin_Jersey.NHL their defensive backs today. Its why we threw it like we did. We certainly had some guys open in the secondary and then there were other opportunities as well Defensively as well, they were a load, obviously that quarterback is, and we gotta stop the run and get ourselves off the field as well. Certainly had a lot of opportunities out there in all three phases. The difference between a good team and a great team can be pinpointed to a lot of different facets, but one thats applicable here is that good teams create their own opportunities to help themselves https://www.storeprocapitals.com/Tom_Wilson_Jersey.NHL win the game, while great teams make those opportunities count when theyre there. South Carolina might not be there yet, but its clear that this team is a little bit farther along compared to last year when it comes to the vision that Shane Beamer has for https://www.storeprocapitals.com/Rod_Langway_Jersey.NHL this program.Beamer also provided an injury update on three defense players who exited the contest. Cam Smith, Jordan Strachan, and Mohamed Kaba will all be re-evaluated on Monday, and Gamecocks Digest will update readers as information becomes available.Jordan and Mo Kaba ... it doesnt look good going forward, so well say our prayers tonight, and hopefully well get some good news, but right now it doesnt look good. Cam should be fine, had an upper body injury that I hope would not be long-term at all."You Might Also Like:Join the community:Follow Evan Crowell on Twitter: Follow Andrew Lyon on Twitter: Y
