USC (Carolina)

Am I missing something? I heard from many that South Carolina is a hands down favorite to beat us next year, and some are even predicting that they will beat Florida and win the East. Yes, I am talking about the same South Carolina team that we dominated 31-13 last year on Halloween. Yes, I am also talking about the same South Carolina team that got completely shutdown by a mediocre UConn team in the bowl game. How do they jump from the bottom to the top like that? I haven't heard about them getting any amazing talent this year that could come in and help them win games. Marcus Lattimore seems like a good player but that was the only headliner. On top of that, they lost their best player (Norwood). Will someone explain this to me? What have I missed? GBO!

They have to finish if they want to win the East. UF will beat them.

They have to play Florida in Gainesville this year I believe, no way they pull that off.

Go look at their offensive players and their OC (SOS) and tell me they won't have an offense that puts up tons of points.

I have many friends back home in South Carolina, and form what I hear this will not be a Carolina team the rest of the country has seen in years past.

If USC doesn't do it this year, I don't think they ever will. This season is the best opportunity for them with questions with UT, UGA, and even some at UF. I know USC won't beat all three, but 2/3 could be a possibility for them. Just mho.

Am I the only one that hears this year in and year out? Every year since Steve Suckier has been there has supposed to be USC's breakout year and it never happens.

The Carolina fans I know say they will not be sleeping on Tennessee by any means, BUT if they beat us it will be because of their experience.

No, I hear it every year form friends back home. They are just hoping that this year they can live up to all the hype.

Spurrier's best year was his first year, which is what lead to outrageous expectations for his coaching career at USC. In the end of the day, people are still forgetting it's South Carolina. I'll never buy into this hype until I see the results.
