"The last time in black shirts is something you'll always remember." The last game brings lots of memories and emotions ^for the senior players. "I'm anxious to see what's going to happen," said place kicker Travis Harrison, who earned a spot on the team as a walk-on. "Walking in knowing it's your lasl game, it's kind of scary. It'll be emotional for me." Team captain Ernest Dixon is thinking about his memories as a Gamecock as he heads into his lasl game.
