South Carolina had nine wide receivers catch passes against Kent State, and Kendal Briles said the 57-0 margin let the staff evaluate the room's depth through an expanded rotation rather than implying that every receiver has an equal role in close games.

South Carolina's Donovan Murph produced four catches for 92 yards and two touchdowns on throws of 29 and 37 yards from Sellers despite not starting or appearing in the first couple of series.

South Carolina has trained Murph at both inside and outside receiver, with Briles highlighting his versatility and ability to stay ready before entering from the bench.

South Carolina continued calling its passing offense after the game was decided so reserve players could get meaningful execution opportunities, which is important context for the broad distribution of opening-game receiving production.

South Carolina's Nyck Harbor added five catches for 70 yards and DJ Black three for 62, providing productive receiving options alongside Murph in the opener rather than leaving all of the passing output to one target.
