It is not luck

  • I was at the ballgame and had two Clemson fans talking about how lucky USC was to win the championship last year. I asked them what was the luck to which they replied Wingo's play and the plat at the plate. I informed them if the player made the play it was not luck. I am really tired of Clemson fans saying every good thing that USC does as luck. Also the discussion turned to Va. being the best team last year to which I replied that USC beat them two straight. Also, Vandy and Fla probably would have beaten them. We finally moved to talking about the weather a safer topic.HEY TATERS IF PLAYERS MAKE THE PLAY IT IS NOT LUCK.

  • I don't understand Clemson fans at our game vs Bama. If I lived in the upstate I would not attend a Clemson game.....I would make the trip down I-26 and support my own team !

    They Clemmers were not all wrong. We were lucky that the ball was hit to Wingo and Florida was unlucky that the ball was hit to Wingo, because there was no doubt that Wingo was going to make the play if ti came his way. I prefer to use te word destined rather than lucky when discussing our championships with non-Gamecock fans. And I quote, "Luck is when preparation meets opportunity."

    They come to our games because they want to watch some quality college baseball.... something they cant get in taterville.

  • When Clemson used to dominate us, I used to think they were the luckiest team in the world. My how times have changed.

  • Don't explain anything to taters. They aren't really deserving of an explanation and they are probably too stupid to understand anyway.

    Why waste your time?

  • The best definition of LUCK is winning a championship in football, get caught cheating and not having the NCAA take that championship away........
