Heels-Cocks...Who Wins?

SC shouldn't have scored that first TD. That was clearly an interception and the officials (SEC mind you) just blew the call.

Too many dropped TD passes (2 for sure), 4 points lost in the kicking game, and that punt shoulda been blocked!

 

James Madison = D1-AA
ECU = lost to West Virginia by 41
Virginia = 6-1, but look who they've played
USF = I knew they were good, but Carolina got blown the fuck out
VT = Worst Hokies team in years, still lost
Miami = Worst 'Canes team in years, almost blew a gift
SCar = Overrated

Look, I want to be optimistic, I do, but the team I saw against South Florida was awful. I'm pleased that the guys have played so hard and kept themselves competitive in most games, but Carolina just isn't a good team. They're still a bad team right now, albeit a talented bad team. And moreover, I don't see a reason to think that they're anywhere close to being "DAMN good." I want it to happen, as I've always been more of a football fan than basketball fan, but that's just homer talk.

 

As a Gamecock fan, I will be the first to say that we are dramatically overrated (6th nationally). But...this is a crazy year.

UNC certainly gained much respect with their effort, but keep in mind, although UNC looked terrific in the 2nd half, for whatever reason, Spurrier went to a very predictable ball control offense. (I never would have dreamt that he would do so). But what is even more puzzing is that I didn't think he would know what that was (ball control).

 

Agree. There's still Tennessee and Florida on the schedule and Arkansas can be dangerous too. I think the Gamecocks are a year or two away from being something special, particularly because of the issues on the O-line. There's some potential with the current clump of receivers for a compliment to McKinley to emerge, but none have made a strong case yet.

 

Next year we'll lose Web Brown (center...G. Anderson is a Sophomore who should be bigger and better), Cory Boyd...big loss, but I think Mike Davis may be better. Brian Maddox was 4th RB in the country per ESPN and will be a sophomore. On D we lose Casper Brinkley, but Jasper comes back. That's it.

 

Freak, did you score tickets?

 

I don't know what game you were at but I was at the game and not one fan left at halftime. And the fans stood and cheered the heels as they left the field

 

Didn't try. I had planned on it. Just never got my ass in gear.

 

I, too, heard a lot of people left. Heard it was mainly the older crowd that left at the half. I was NOT there.

I remember when we applauded last year when we lost to Auburn by 6...Spurrier asked us to never applaud again when we lose.

 

The older crowd went to the restrooms to change their depends
