“We remember the Sugar Bowl, I think it my junior year of high school, we let Alabama beat us twice,” Brinson said of a team that also lost to the Crimson Tide in the SEC Championship game. “We’re not letting Alabama beat us twice. In the Sugar Bowl in 2018, they… thought they should have been in the playoffs and lost to Texas.” -- AB-H, 12/27/23
I was thinking last night, I know he was a troll, with no proven connection to the Gamecocks, but that banned asshat may have done permanent damage to my attitude about South Carolina.
To the point where I want to add to the gal’s story….George Rogers and his fumble in Athens.
Fuck South Carolina…dude pissed off.

All his ranting about our history with the amazing ability to not recognize the irony of USC’s history vs ours when he’d tell us to just “hang on to Herschel” reminds me of Jim Carrey in this scene http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0RKDifoyra8

Oh, I don’t know what else we could add. How about–
See the Gamecocks win an SEC championship.
Since that is unlikely to ever occur, how about just settle for seeing the Ol’ Ball Sack and his boys give up less than 50 if they ever make another SEC championship game.

How about…
Being a Plebe on the scout team offense at Navy in 1984, when #2 ranked South Carolina roll into Navy-Marine Corps Stadium with sacks of Oranges that they cheerfully tossed onto the field after their first touchdown. After which, Navy scored 31 straight points on route to a soul-crushing 38-21 defeat of the shell-shocked Gamecocks.
I would like to add this to the 100 Things.
Navy’s senior DT Eric Rutherford had a performance a la Bill Stanfill vs Spurrier in 1966. Watch this for some fun schadenfreude. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4jhjh4tAEA
Also, Navy’s defensive end, #44, was the great Eric Fudge from Glynn Academy in Brunswick. He had a forearm that hit like a sledgehammer. I had the unenviable task of facing him daily in practice. Back then, in the “Concussions are for p_ssies” era, you could hammer a player in the head with a forearm and Fudge made you pay every time the ball was snapped.

The concussion era could have had some bearing on the inexplicable incident in which Eric got into trouble. That night notwithstanding, he was a great teammate and a phenomenal pilot. Hell, he could probably run for President on that record. 😉

So “we won the SEC East once” constitutes a turnaround for a program? May back into another this year but still finish 6-2 in conference play. Now that’s what I call a dynasty.

“The parking lot that surrounds the stadium is easily far hotter. ”
Let me tell you a quick story. In ’90 some SC knucklehead had the bright idea to have a bunch of bands play in an all day music festival in that blacktop parking lot. In freaking JULY, on the 4th. The soles of my shoes melted, and I’m not kidding. Folks were falling out due alcohol + the heat, and receiving 1st degree burns when they hit the asphalt. Never been so hot in my entire life! We made the trip to see Athen’s own Widespread Panic and my friends from VA, Indecision. Fun but miserable if you know what I mean!
