Marcus Lattimore had a 58-yard run against Troy in 2010 in a game South Carolina won 69-24 at Williams-Brice one week ahead of the Clemson game.

Marcus Lattimore had three touchdowns and 102 yards rushing by halftime to lead the 17th-ranked Gamecocks to a 69-24 victory, its biggest point total under Steve Spurrier and the most it has scored in 15 years.

The TD surge gave Lattimore 19 touchdowns, surpassing Harold Green's 16 for South Carolina's single-season mark. Lattimore also moved one TD away from the SEC freshman record of 20 set by Tennessee's Reggie Cobb in 1987.
