SEC player carted off after horrifying injury left him motionless on the field

This was extremely scary.

On Saturday night, South Carolina wide receiver Terry Googer had to be carted off the field on a backboard after suffering an injury on a punt return.

Medical personnel immediately got to Googer, where they had to cut his facemask and chinstrap off in order to safely remove his helmet; Googer was motionless on the field for several minutes. Googer was eventually able to give the crowd a thumbs up as the cart was preparing to take him off of the field.

Googer went to a local hospital, where he was eventually cleared to return to the stadium and rejoin his teammates on the sideline.
