Funny, we're 1-1 with "SOS" at South Carolina, with the loss being part of our 2005 collapse.
Saban was the highest paid coach in college football before he left. Spurrier was recently offered the highest salary ever for a college coach.

If you thinking being at .500 against a SC coach is good, then you are the ultimate example of how far UT's expectations have fallen.
