It keeps getting better...

  • ...VegasInsider now has the Clemson game off the board due to Christian Ponder being questionable. How do they manage to do it? I know the ACC sucks, but ClemTech gets it turned around in November just as we begin our annual SWOON. Mark it down they will beat FSU and win the Atlantic. That's about as far as they'll get but it will not surprise me in the least to see them beat us and then play for the ACC. Typical. I HATE FOOTBALL SEASON! When does baseball start?

  • Ponder being out might be a good thing....he's a loser.

  • Beating NCState-- a team with a recent loss to East Carolina-- and by what I saw Saturday a poor team-- is getting it turned around?
    If that is the measure of turning it around then I guess they have.
    We didn't "swoon" into a loss to them last year and we will not this year.

    We lost 4 of our last 5 last year. Sure we beat Clemson and soundly but we were home and due for a win against a team we had only beaten 2 out of our last 10 tries. Call me crazy but this year is shaping up very similarly to 2008 when everyone wrote Clemson off and they rallied around their dip$#!+ cheerleading head coach and pulled our panties down the Saturday after Thanksgiving. They weren't very good then either. And yes a string of wins is turning it around when they were all but dead in the water 10 days ago. Now they are playing for their (terrible) division. I'm pretty sure I've ready this chapter before and it sucked!

    If they were to beat FSU, don't some other things have to happen for them to win their division?

  • Klimpson is in a winning swoon.

    They have won ONE in a row. Big swoon.

    No...that's why I said BEGIN. Unfortunately we play more than one game in November. So it is a PREDICTION. Hope I'm wrong, doubt I will be. Like I said, I've read this chapter too many times. I'll be glad to come back and eat crow if proven wrong. Will you?

    I think so, but not a lot. Maryland and NC State have to win out to win it I believe and that it unlikely to happen...

  • Well funny how you didn't SAY it was a prediction mchuffy.

    Either post more clearly or don't whine when someone responds to WHAT YOU DID POST.

    PittCock

  • MCCocky
    Sorry, I missed the "string" of wins they had.
    The newspaper I get reported they lost to Boston College week before last.
    I must have read it wrong.

    I'm not whining. Go back and read the OP. I said we BEGIN which implies prediction for those not literally challenged.

    I didn't say they had a string of wins. I am saying that they will have a string of W's by the end of the month. Again, I hope I am wrong but I will be looking for Old97 and Pittcock if I am right. If I'm wrong, I won't be hard to find either. No need to name call and get all upset. If you are a Gamecock fan like me, you've seen this before. I'm not telling you anything you don't already know. And yes, I know we play good teams to finish and they play bad ones. It doesn't make any easier to swallow.

    If you are a Gamecock fan you are my friend. I want to make it very clear I don't name call on
    here nor in the non-internet world. Neither am I upset with your fair comments-- just disagreeing with some
    of them.

    Old97

  • Fair enough...nor do I. The name calling part of the comment was meant for Pitt. Bottom line is I hope I am wrong on all accounts, but I don't like the direction this team is headed this year. I remember having a glimmer of hope headed to Gainesville in '08 (sitting at 7-3) and the next thing I knew it was 56-6. I don't think that will happen, but it almost did this past Saturday.

  • If there was every a week that you should just worry about and support SC it is this week. Why are you even bringing up cowpie U? Support SC leave the rest alone this week.

    Besides as bad as we played and lost against ARKY, we still played better than cowpie U. They were awful

  • mccrocky, I went back and read the OP and you didn't post a prediction. You posted your nonsense AS FACT.

    Now spin on.

    PittCock

  • Man, not only literally challenged, but persistent. I said clemson gets it turned around in November (infer historically) just as we BEGIN our annual November nosedive (again infer historically). For those that need it spelled out, I am not saying it has already happened because obviously we both have only played 1 game in November. We are 0-1 and they are 1-0. I am merely predicting that history could be repeating itself as it has oh too many times. I'm sorry my post has struck such a nerve with you but maybe it's because "deep down in places you don't talk about at parties" you know I might be right. Enjoy your evening. I will check back with you in December and as I said, will be most gratious in my apologies if I am proven wrong. That will be the easiest post I ever have to write in describing how wrong I was about our 2010 Cocks!
