How poetic would it be if Shula beat us in South Carolina this year?

OMG... Just realized. Here we are calling Deboer the Shula 2.0. What if Shula 1.0 beats us in South Carolina this year? Oh dear ...

If?


If something drastic doesn't change, there is no if.

Got lucky to beat them last yr. Sellers is going to run all over this shite defense. I bet he doesn't attempt more than 15 passes.

We did everything we could to lose that game.

I don't think it's fair to call DeBoer Shula 2.0 at this point. Shula had a 10 win season with a fraction of the talent DeBoer has had.

Shula's teams played hard and had scholarship losses. He was hired at the last minute. We are often too hard on him. If you take out that first year he went 22-15 which about what DeBoer is now and likely better than DeBoer will be by the end of the year.

If I say Mike Shula out and about I'd shake his hand and thank him. I won't share what I'd like to do with DeBoer.

This. Sellers is better than castellanos. This is going to be a long and miserable season.
Roberts, Miller and Keenan would not have changed the outcome yesterday and they won’t for the rest of the season

We can't even call him DuBose at this point...DuBose somehow actually won a SEC championship.

We're at Ears territory unless things drastically change.

Funny thing is, my son-in-law is on the South Carolina compliance staff and he has great tickets for the game. I’ll be sitting among the USCe faithful watching us get spanked.

Just think... we get to play Arnold again... but this time in Jordan-Hare

At this point, we should just forfeit the Iron Bowl because there is no chance we win that one. None. Why risk the injuries?

They’ll opt out if we continue down this path.

We hire him back as our HC. Kines as DC, too.

I think SC will beat us. We are not very good in any area .

We just gotta stop that little inside trap.

Joe wouldn’t have let that QB run like he did yesterday.

There were so many lanes to run through yesterday. A lot of waiting, a lot of catching, no attacking. Awful tackling in open space. I'm baffled at how pitiful it was. So much hype for this defense too. It's hard to believe that we don't have the talent and dudes, but after what we saw yesterday, it's kind of hard to believe that we do

Joe Kines might not have been articulate but he could coach defense. He just needed the horses.

Shula will drag his nuts all over Wommack. Bank on it.

If we don't have the guys on the DL, then why not blitz, a lot, from everywhere? We either get stops or get beat and give up big plays, which we seem to be doing already. Either way we get the ball back and we don't have to watch it happen on a sustained drive

By South Carolina game, Carolina will be favored by two touchdowns. Bama losing will not be a surprise.
