Clemson sucks this year. Plain and simple. Had clemson beaten all the teams SC had played I'd never hear the end of it. But facts are you suck and will continue to suck the rest of the season. Even if you win over the Cocks you will still suck. The cocks have a chance at not sucking this year. You on the other hand will struggle to beat Wake. Give it up. Move along and focus on another loosing season of basketball.

go back to your basketball thread..... your comments are worthless here

i will say that the chances of S.Car winning out the rest of the season are far better than Clemson's chances of winning out.


Having a hot S.Car team coming into town (that stomped you guys last year) is not going to help your chances at a win to end the season.

As a whole, clemson sucks. There are a few good things you can say about the D however i don't think anyone really belives that those one or two players will win the game for them. They haven't won you guys games on a regular basis all season long so i'm not sure exactly what it is your smoking that makes you think it will start winning them games Nov 27th...or is it the 24th...all my dates are blurred together. I'm too lazy to look at a calender.

Remember the last time Bama played clemson....wasn't too long after that and you guys got a new coach.

Another SEC team is coming to town later this month and the same thing might happen to Dabo.

South Carolinas chances of going to the Sugar bowl are greater than clemsons chances of a bowl appearance.

You don't judge how good a team is based on bowl appearances....you judge how bad a team is by not making a bowl appearance. It's just not your year Moo U

 

[BELMONT148]

Well the odds makers have us a 2 TD favorite to be bowl eligible so I will take their opinion over yours.

As far as giving up on CU, we'll leave that for the Tarhole fans. As evident last year Carolina sucked and then beat CU to end a decent year. Or atleast a bragging rights year. We'll be looking for the same this year. It ain't over yet.

S.Car always plays best when they are the underdog. Look at the GA, Bama and UF games. When no body picks them...they come up with big wins!

with the past record aside the SEC east champs should never face an ACC opponet (especially and unranked ACC opponet) and be chosen as an underdog.

As I have said all along Clemson is a mediocore team this year for sure... but to think we can't hang with you is absurd. We played the now #1 team in the country closer than anyone has all season; took them to OT at their house if you remember. Played them closer than your beloved lamecocks did All but one of our loses was by 4 points or less, so there is no reason to expect this one will be any different.

We haven't been blown out all season like you guys were against Arkansas at home.

I am not saying I expect the tigers to win, but I do feel quite confident that this game is going to be alot closer than most USuC fans believe and it wouldn't shock me it Clemson pulls it out. I mean hell its not like USuC is unbeatable; I do believe you have 3 loses. You did have 2 impressive wins but you also have two loses where you looked like crap.



I am very much looking forward to this game

 

[dohcdelsol93]

I just don't see how Clemson expects to stop Lattimore. We ran the ball at will against Georgia/Bama/UF and all out rank you in the rush D department(not to mention much tougher scheduels)

Even S.Miss out ranks you guys in rush D.

So long as Lattimore and the O line are healthy this game will be a blow out.

Even if for some reason Clemson does commit to stacking the line and makes Garcia throw the ball we have recievers that will eat your secondary alive. Come one...Clemsons back field playing 1 on 1 against Jeffery and Gurly...then force a LB to cover Lattimore when he's rolling out of the back field. No chance.

All the teams that have beat us have been able to do one thing. Score more than 21 points. Unless Kyle Parker finds some magic potion that makes him able to play the way you guys hyped him up to be playing at the beginning of the season you guys will have no chance of even 14 points. You're better off trying to score on the special teams.

You guys have mediocre running backs and a less than stellar O line. If you guys try to pound it out your going to be stuck with a lot of 3rd and longs...don't expect those stone handed recievers to make many good plays for you guys. They couldn't catch a cold. The run is Clemsons bread and butter....but if Ingram/Richardson couldn't do it...your not going to.

The only way Clemson wins is to get the throwing game going. Even then S.Car is 3rd in the nation in sacks, way more sacks than clemson. Even if the clemson WR's do burn the SC corners Paker still has to get the ball to them and more importantly they have to catch it. Not an equasion Clemson has put together very well this season.

And next year is looking even better, look at all the newly interested recruits, already commited recruits and all the talent coming back next season.

Yes sir...the next few years S.Car will own clemson and will have a good chance at the SEC. The other SEC greats are rebuilding, but we've got a better looking foundation than any of them at the moment.


scoring 14-16 points is not going to win this game for you cow folk...Parker is no Mallet or Newton.

 

[Gundy]

So you are saying CU will lose to Wake and USuC?

Jeremy

Any thing can happen. Troy scares the crap outta me. Each game now has
added significance from the last, especially for USC.

Wake is a BIG game for CU.....make no mistake about it. CU could play tight.
Wake could play inspired. Who knows?
BIG game. Imagine that.....who would have thunk THAT in August?
I'm just saying....

Clemson hasn't had a losing season in basketball in 5 years and in the ACC in 4, know your facts and stay in the Bball thread where you belong. At least there you don't have to buy players to be relevant.

 

[dohcdelsol93]

troy only scares me if Spurrier tries to comes out calling passing plays.

I don't think their O line can hold our front four. Mallet tore our secondary apart but no one in college football can throw the ball like mallet. And his O line, there isn't enough you can say about the line infront of mallet, his passing yards this season say enough. I don't think Troy will have nearly that much time to be making 30-50 yard plays.

Should give our soft secondary much more opprotunity to make plays. Last weeks confidence boost should help us out alot, got to knock off these two no body teams and ride into atlanta on hopefully the highest note of the season.

If we see the S.Car team that played GA/Bama/UF and the first half of the AUB/KT games the rest of the season will be a breeze.

Could be an 11 win season with a Sugar Bowl!!!

Tell me that wouldn't help finalize some recruits!

Who are the kids Clemson's bringing into town for the S.Car game....the kids that also have us on their list...i'm betting that move is going to backfire bigtime!

 

[clemson55]

i will say that the chances of S.Car winning out the rest of the season are far better than Clemson's chances of winning out.

You are an idiot. USuC has to play Clemson which is always hard no matter how cocky you are feeling right now, then they have to play the SECCG, and what should be a good bowl. Clemson's only hard game left is USuC there is no way you have more chance of winning out then we do.

 

[dohcdelsol93]

the reason S.Car has a better chance of winning than Clemsux....Clemsux sucks this season.

This isn't the same carolina team that has enjoyed 6-6 seasons for years.

This is a S.Car team that has gone on the road and beat a UF team in the Swamp of 100,000 in blue with the SEC title on the line....and beat them into the ground.

This is a S.Car team that has hosted #1 Alabama and owned them aswell...we have won all but one home game all season to this point.

This is a new S.Carolina team, a team with top recruits playing chamipionship level football.

Clemson is going to get ROLLED!!!!!

You couldn't beat us with Spiller and a Parker that didn't have rockies on the mind.

Your not going to beat us this year with Lattimore and Jeffery on fire or with a much more mature Garcia.

Your not going to beat us with a far better run D than we had last year.

Your not going to beat us with our top two recievers putting up better numbers than your top reciever.

No sir...the years of Clemsux having some advantage over us is over.

Dont think for a moment that death valley is a harder place to play than the swamp. Don't think for a second that any of your offensive players are better than the offense we just saw in Florida and there is no way in hell your going to prove that clemson has a better D than the gators have. To top it off...no Clemson team (especially not this one) is going to want the win more than Florida wanted that win in the swamp not only for the SEC title but also to win over Spurrier (a little fact, S.Car had never won in the swamp and that was Flroidas biggest loss in the swamp)

So any ideas you might have about the past being a factor...toss them out the window. This isn't the S.Carolina of the past. Want more proof outside this seasons perfomances....look at our recruiting.

You guys have not seen a D as tough as ours this season. This is a true SEC D. We are geared to stop the run. We are built for a grind it out war between the trenches football game.


Anyway you look at it Clemson has no vantage point. You guys have bowers....wow...one player that is supposed to give you the game...too bad he's not a player that can put up points for you.

Clemson can't run the ball, clemson can't throw the ball, your obviously not going to be able to stop our running game.

Yeah yeah yeah....Bowers right????

S.Car wins games because they play as a team. We don't have a patch work of individuals that we rely on to occasionally do something right and win us a game by 3 points.

yes we have one blow out this season, against Arkansas. The Arkansas team that throws the ball better than anyone else, a team perfectly built to take advantge of our weak point, the secondary.

Hate to point this out to you but Parker is no mallet and the receivers Parker has are no where near what Mallet has. Your O line, no where near the level that Mallet and the Ark crew has.

S.Car 45

Clemson 14

S.Car will dominate the line of scrimmage all game long

 

[BELMONT148]

No one has scored more than 30 points against us, and Cam Newton only hit 27 in OT, and somehow Garcia is going to score 45? He doesn't have it in him. If you would actually talk some sense people would take you seriously, but your ramblings are so disillusion, and hyped up it's comical.

I hope Garcia is as worked up as you are.

Jeremy

 

[dohcdelsol93]

Garcia won't have to do it (although i'm sure he will get at least one rushing TD, possibly two)

Spurrier said he is going to play the rest of the season on the back of Lattimore.

As shabby as you guys have played this season I look for you guys to be so winded in the 3rd that Maddox will probably carry for 50 yards or more.


disillusional...we racked up over 30 points against Florida...just last week..on the road...a much better team than yours all around.

We will rack up even more against Clemsux.

The play calling of Auburn has changed since the Clemsux game. As pointed out before the play calling of Auburn opened up the Newton show at half time of the S.Car game and has continued ever since.

Secondly our D is much better than that of Auburns against the run. You guys are already one dimensional, how well do you think parker is going to do without Harper/Smellington to save his ass.

Third, you guys have not faced a RB as good as Lattimore.

Remember the last time you guys faced a back as good as Lattimore??? His name was Ingram.

Clemson has no chance. I've already heard rumor of over 10,000 tickets for the game being in posession of Gamecock fans. There will be atleast 10,000 left cheering in the stands as the orange evacuates late in the 3rd

there is no chance for Clemson. Clemson can't get the basics right.

They can't win the line of scrimmage, they can't win on special teams, that can't keep the sticks moving.

There is no way Clemson will be able to move the ball against S.Car. S.Car will move the ball at will. If you can't do the basics right you will beat yourself every time.

All S.Car has to do is be patient and stick to the game plan. Do what they do best. Play solid football. We can play one of our worst games of the season and still rack up 38 points against TN...Clemson who has even less of an offensive threat....will take even less to score on.


the only illusion here is the fact that Clemson actually thinks they have a chance. The only leg they have to stand on is "we always beat S.Car"

This is not your average S.Car team.

 

[clemson55]

There is no way USuC scores 45 on Clemson. I'll put $50 on it right now. We haven't given up more than 3 touchdowns in any game all year. And news flash USuC hasn't scored that many points on any team all year. Stop drinking the kool-aid and drink some reality in. You very well might win the game but you will not score 45 points doing it.

 

[clemson55]

This is not your average S.Car team.

Thanks captain obvious we figured that out when they won 6 games.

 

[dohcdelsol93]

we have scored over 30 points in 5 games this season.


Scored 47 against a S.Miss team that ranks higher than Clemson in rush D.

Nov 27th will be a LONG LONG LONG day for the Clemsux football team and fans. S.Car has a better chance of racking up 45 points against clemson than clemson does of having more than 2 offensive touch downs. Just wait, the Clemson line will have nothing that can slow down #21. Hes going to ROLL you guys! I'm betting giving up over 200yds on the ground to one guy is going to kill you guys!!!! The fans will be chanting FIRE DABO by the end of the game!

I hope you guys come back and acknowledge just how wrong your predictions were.

I figured after the UF win we would see Spurrier save his stars for the Aubrun game.

This all out game plan is great for S.Car fans....not so great for Troy and Clemson fans.

So yes...S.Carolinas chances of both winning out the end of the season and winning the SEC CS as well as a Sugar Bowl are far better than Clemsons chances are of even making a bowl this season.

An 11 win season would be another SC first!

I was only about a year old when the '82 black magic team was playing. It's great to see another Gamecock team worth bragging about!

However Spurrier's goal has been more than just to arrive to an SEC CS game, he wants to make this football program one that is feared by all opponets year after year like he did with UF. It appears that the wait of 6 years has been well worth it. We are almost there!

 

[dohcdelsol93]

Thanks captain obvious we figured that out when they won 6 games.

we have not had less than a 6 win season in over 6 years...what is clemsons record again this year?

Thats right...only 5 wins with two games left and one of which they have NO CHANCE IN HELL of losing!

talk about drinking the orange flavored koolaid...the orange film over your eyes has blinded you to the fact that S.Car has rolled up over 45 pts against a team (opening game) this season and S.Car has been bowl eligable every season since Spurrier has taken over.

So 6 wins...is pretty close to the average.

Now a SC team that is both SEC CS bound and 7-3 with two easy wins ahead of them with both games being easy blow outs so long as they play to their full ability. Then the potential for a Sugar Bowl appearance...

Yes...this is a very special season for S.Car!

You scored 41 genius. And you are right, there is NO CHANCE IN HELL that we will lose. A little Freudian slip there? Already subconsciously worried about Clemson?
