ihateorange.......You are an idiot. I've watched your posts on here for a long time and have held my peace. Anybody that comes on a Tennessee board and chooses "i hate orange" for a screen name is a card carrying meatball.

Jaytrain just pimp smacked you so hard that even my ears are ringing. Please return to Cockytalk now. You have nothing else to say.

Unfortunately, you have done more damage in your ranting and raving than even the Great Gamecock Ambassador is able to repair.

You're an idiot for thinking UT is a better school than any other in the nation...except maybe Bama. There is nothing to brag about there.

OMG...once again your ignorance is astounding...

Check out the US News public school rankings...you'll find UT and USCe tied for 52nd out of 176 schools...so if you're going to insult our credentials as a university then you are inadvertantly...and I say inadvertantly because you are obviously clueless...cutting down your own university as well

I never said we put out more successful NFL players. I said we've pretty much equaled yall in NFL output the past 3-4 years. A player can get to the NFL from USC just as easily as UT. Thats bein nice.

Again...by this assertion that you are making...you're claiming that USCe has done better than putting 4 players in the league by way of the FIRST ROUND in the past 3 drafts? Not to mention the 10+ that have gone in the first 3 rounds over that span?

You're going around in circles...first claiming USCe has put as many if not more players in the league as UT then trying to say it doesn't matter when the informed football fans on here shoot that obvious nonsense down...

You try to make your point with baseless claims and flat out false statements then you back track when your sewage is shot down....you could be a pretty good politician...

You're clueless.

This year, South Carolina had 1 player taken in the draft...one...and he was taken in the damn 7th round. Tennessee put 3 in the league, including a top 10 overall pick.

In 2007, SC put 2 guys in the league, compared to 6 from Tennessee (including 4 guys in the first 2 rounds).

In 2006, the Gamecocks sent 2 guys to the league, compared to 5 from Tennessee.

So, over the past 3 years, Tennessee has outproduced South Carolina for NFL talent by a 3-to-1 ratio.

And you don't want to know how bad it was during the 90's and early 2000's.

This year UT is last in the SEC. Thats right LAST.:eek:k:

Relevance to the content of my post that you quoted?

Perhaps it's too much for me to expect that you join the discussion with some meaningful, slightly insightful, coherent thought that coincides with the topic.

So, now that we're just throwing random elbows, I'll point out that Tennessee has 13 SEC championships - South Carolina has 0.

I certainly wouldn't expect a South Carolina fan to have an appreciation for history...it's too painful to consider SC's 116 years of mediocrity and utter irrelevance.

Frankly, focusing on the present is miserable for UT fans, but it's not really all that impressive for South Carolina. You're a 7-8 win ball club that won't be in Atlanta anytime soon, if ever.

While Tennessee has flat-out owned you, historically, you certainly have a better team this year. That said, most level-headed people know that Tennessee will be back in Atlanta, the Vols will win the conference again, and at some point the national champion will, again, be clad in Big Orange. I don't think that any of that can be assumed for your program.

Geez guys, I didn't want to post something someone already had and I had to go back 3 pages of cock fighting just to find out. Since it appears Giles is gone for good, why don't we just change the thread title to UT/USC smack talk.

"I'm heading somewhere else," the 5-foot-11, 185-pound tailback from Gaither (Tampa, Fla.) told the Knoxville News Sentinel. "The only reason I committed to Tennessee was Fulmer. We had a real strong connection.
"I liked Fulmer a lot. That's why I was so dedicated to Tennessee. Now since he's gone I feel that there's really no point for me to be there."

Sounds like Giles is no longer considering us.

God, I love this article.

History
The University of South Carolina began playing football in 1892. Since then, they have had an all-time winning percentage under .500, which ranks 92nd all-time in D-1A football...only 25 programs have been worse. A few of the notable football programs who have been better than the Gamecocks include such powerhouses as: Duke, Western Michigan, Tulsa, Toledo, Navy, UAB, Central Florida, Ball St., North Texas, Nevada, East Carolina, Houston, Northern Illinois, Utah St., San Jose St., Vanderbilt, Akron, Baylor, UNLV, Kansas, and Rutgers just to name a few. This is South Carolina Gamecock football.

Since the Associated Press began ranking football teams in 1936, the Gamecocks have finished in the top 20 of the rankings only five times. Carolina has never finished in the Top 10 of a major recognized poll. South Carolina won its first bowl game 103 years after they started playing football. In over 100 seasons of football, Carolina has yet to participate in one of the "Big 5" Bowls (Rose, Sugar, Orange, Fiesta, Cotton). As Carolina is set to begin this season of collegiate football, they have won 10 or more games in a single season once. Since 1892, South Carolina has had only 42 winning seasons and 52 losing seasons. This is South Carolina Gamecock football.

South Carolina has had 32 different head coaches in its storied tradition...only five of them stayed longer than 5 seasons, 21 of them have losing records. Of the 56 programs which have played more than 1000 games all-time, only four have scored fewer points than South Carolina in their schools history. This is the tradition of South Carolina Gamecock football.

Conference Play
In the 50+ seasons Carolina has been affiliated with a conference, they have won that conference once...the ACC in 1969, with a 7-4 record. Since joining the SEC in 1992, Carolina has had a winning record in the conference twice (2000 and 2001). In the twelve seasons as a member of the SEC, Carolina boasts a conference record of 35-68-1...only two teams have been worse: Kentucky has 27 wins, Vanderbilt 12. Although Carolina has yet to finish in the top two of the Eastern division, they have finished last twice (1998 and 1999). Carolina has yet to win six conference games in a season. And no one should forget the fact that Carolina went two consecutive seasons without winning one conference game, not one (1998 and 1999). Carolina had an impressive string of 21 consecutive games with a loss snapped in 2000 by beating New Mexico State (then let the rest of the country know what Carolina football was all about by tearing down the goal-posts). Since 1992, only three times has any non-probation member of the conference failed to win two or more games overall in a season...South Carolina has accomplished this feat twice, Kentucky once. Since 1992, only once has a conference member failed to win a game overall in a single season...you guessed it, South Carolina. South Carolina’s all-time record versus other current conference members is even more impressive: 2-9 vs Alabama, 4-8 vs Arkansas, 1-4-1 vs Auburn, 3-18-3 vs Florida, 13-41-2 vs Georgia, 8-6-1 vs Kentucky, 2-14-1 vs LSU, 5-7 vs Ole Miss, 5-6 vs Mississippi St., 2-18-2 vs Tennessee, and 11-2 vs Vanderbilt. That’s correct, Carolina leads the all-time series against 2 SEC teams...Kentucky and Vanderbilt. This is South Carolina Gamecock football.

South Carolina vs. Others
The comparison of only 12 seasons in one conference does no justice to the tradition of South Carolina football. So lets compare the Gamecocks record versus D-1A schools they have played 30 or more times: 35-62-4 vs Clemson, 13-41-2 vs Georgia, 33-21-2 vs Wake Forest, 24-27-4 vs NC State, 16-34-4 vs North Carolina, 17-24-3 vs Duke, and 20-13-1 vs Virginia. That’s correct, Carolina leads the all-time series against 2 of these 11 teams...Virginia and Wake Forest. This is South Carolina Gamecock football.

Last 10 Years
But all this tradition and past records are meaningless. What is more important is the recent history. Only losers live in the past. We are in the best years of Carolina Gamecock football, and the future has never been brighter...or has it? For perspective, let's look at the last ten years...Carolina is coming off another losing season, the 6th in the last 10 seasons. Overall record since Lou Holtz became Head Coach is 27-32 (.458). Since 1994 they are 50-64. Remarkably, Carolina has finished in the Top 25 twice in the last 10 seasons and been won all three bowl games in that span. But before you get too excited, remember these are the only 3 bowl games they've EVER won. The three seasons they've allowed the most points all came within the last 10 years. This is South Carolina Gamecock football.

The 2002 season marked a significant time in South Carolina Gamecock football history. On November 9, South Carolina was defeated by Arkansas giving South Carolina their 500th loss in history. Currently there are 16 members of the elite "500 Club", five of them with better win percentages than the Gamecocks (Virginia, Vanderbilt, Kentucky, Kansas, and Rutgers). In the middle of the season, the Gamecocks were within 1 game of reaching .500 winning percentage at 489-490-44. What would they do? Could USC reach the elusive benchmark of minimal mediocrity? No. They lost five straight to close the season at 5-7 and miss the post season by one game. This is South Carolina Gamecock football.

The Gamecocks fell to 0-9 the last two years in games that could've gained them a bowl bid. The final defeat was a humiliating trouncing at home to their arch-rival Clemson 63-17. Many records were set or tied in the "rivalry" game including most points scored by a team. Coach Holtz said afterwards that he's "embarrassed like I've never been before"...

I can't understand your swagger. Just because Tennessee's down, doesn't mean that South Carolina's relevant.

You prance around like some arrogant Florida or Southern Cal fan. Your program is insignificant....always has been. South Carolina is known for nothing more than having the stadium where they filmed "The Program" and being a place where legendary coaches go to die.

I'd rather be a fan of a perennial powerhouse that happens to go through a difficult period with a few bad seasons, than be a fan of a perennial cellar-dweller that arrogantly celebrates an 8-win season and a bronze medal in its own division. That's just sad.

Wrong again....the great majority of us knew it would take a season like this to get rid of our lame duck coach and get a real one in here...

The only bad thing about a season that led to Fulmer getting fired is that it's given fans like yourself who normally aren't a second thought to us something to chirp about

Holy crap - you seriously are using that as your fire power? You're the worst troll in the history of the internet. You truly are a failure at life. It really sucks knowing your football team will never amount to anything doesn't it?

These are USCe's "glory years." 7 and 8 wins seasons... and they are almost over as Spurrier's career winds down. Sucks doesn't it? Knowing that the pinnacle is about as high as Florida's, Tennessee's, or Georgia's mediocre seasons?
