  "account": "South Carolina's college football team ascended 23 spots in the US LBM Coaches Poll following a 17-9 victory over Texas A&M. The Gamecocks, who were initially ranked No. 24, made history by becoming the first team to break into the poll after their previous ranking. Quarterback LaNorris Sellers, who returned to start the second half after recovering from an ankle injury, played a pivotal role in the win. He completed 20 of 31 passes for 251 yards and a touchdown, while also contributing 34 yards and a touchdown on the ground. The victory marked South Carolina's fourth consecutive win, highlighting their strong performance in the SEC. The Gamecocks will face Arkansas in their next game on November 14. The poll rankings for other teams remained largely unchanged, with Georgia, Utah, Notre Dame, and UCLA holding the top four spots.",
