The 'Cocks and the Tigers Renew the Rivalry.........
Yep, the big game is here again. It's not as big as we were hoping for. First , the Gamecocks forgot how to stop the run for a month. Then, the Tigers lost their chance at the ACC Championship, so I feel a bit better about not spending $300-600 a ticket on the game. I've been accused of being a closet Carolina fan for my relationship with Ms. X, but I am neutral, which has enabled me to compile a 12-4 record on the games this year. One game left........
Clemson at Carolina:
There are some longstanding trends that go aginst the Gamecocks. Mainly, Carolina hasn't won two years in a row since 1969 - when I was one! That's a long trend..... However, they are playing at home, and Carolina has had an extra week to get ready. So, this game could go either way......But someone's gotta win, right?
The Tigers have the better offense (slightly), and the better defense(a bit more than slightly). However, I just have this feeling that Carolina is going to pull some big effort off. For Clemson, this game is like almost snagging a supermodel, then having to ask out your neighbor instead. I don't think they are REALLY up for this one. The home field advantage and having something to play for (a bowl game) wins this one out. S. Carolina, 27-21.
Sorry, Moye.

Clemson 34-14...USC offense and defense is a mess and Steve Spurrier has run out of visors. you never know though with this one though since both teams have a knack for choking when they get to a good spot.
True Dat, Yo! I wanted to avoid paralysis by analysis, so I just went with a gut feeling. Who knows?
this is a hard game to figure so go figure
Even IF the cocks were to turn the ball over on the 20 in thier first series, there are too many intangibles, like the Gators - Florida State Criminoles rivlary and the Virginia - Virginia Tech smackdown.
they are having a big party at wyboo for both sides if you need somewhere to go watch the game at. myself probably be at it in columbia
And you said you were skipping it this year!!
had a change of heart
