Why? Preseason bullshite is based on preseason bullshite. Period.

I could talk about how your CBs and pass rush are both a giant question mark and how that's a bad combination. An especially bad combination considering 2 of your first 3 games are against aTm and UGA - everybody seems to think highly of their WR groups.

I could talk about how you can't beat AU and you play them at AU.

I could talk about how you have one win in the Swamp ever that I know of and you go there this year.

I could talk about how you don't get extra time to prepare for UGA like you have in past years. I could talk about how we don't have anybody suspended for this game like we have in past years. I could talk about how we do have extra time to prepare for this game unlike past years. I could talk about how Richt has never lost in Columbia when Lattimore isn't on the roster.

I could talk about how I think your running game will regress because you don't have a QB to split carries with Davis and take the pressure off of him.

But I've been assured by Cack fans that this is all minor, so I'm expecting 12-0.

I was just trying to explain OP's reasoning for having "maybe" beside USCe.

Bama is the only contended and they have a huge unknown at QB.

USC and UGA has no business in the conversation and Auburn will have a typical let down year following a miracle one.

I think what CNB is getting is that all things considered there is no reason why SC shouldn't be considered any more or less a legit national title contender than some of the other schools you listed, but we're put in the "maybe" section because our name is South Carolina and not LSU or UGA. Of course by doing so you'd be completely ignoring the countless "Never done befores" we've knocked off our list since Spurrier got here.

Couldn't win @UT, couldn't beat UF at all, couldn't beat a #1 ranked team, could never win the East. etc. etc. etc.

I'll give you that my good man. U guys were listed as maybe because of name recognition and it really isn't fair, I'll fix it.

Again, history has nothing to do with it.

wtf? Besides, we get ECU, big whoop. Might work out better for us to get another game under our belt to keep working out the kinks, especially giving our young secondary and DLine some really good playing time.

Who cares, hardly any of this shite you're spewing has anything to do with next year/our game.

Your original response was to me, when I said that there should also be a 'maybe' beside UGA and LSU because neither of those teams should be considered more of contenders than us right now. I mean for Christ's sake y'all just lost the most proficient passer in SEC history.

What LSU almost did in 2011 and what Georgia almost did in 2012 has NOTHING to do with this upcoming year. Stupid reasoning my friend.

And you lost the most successful QB in school history. But, hey, it's in the past. None of that shite matters.

Holy shite now you're comparing losing players the previous year to "well LSU almost won it in 2011 and UGA got close"

You can't make this shite up

I love the "you lost murray" shite coming out of the same shite eating mouths that said "you will lose because of murray" and "murray cant win the big game"


Morons. shite eaters in the moonlight.

...so the past does or doesn't matter? I'm so confused.

I merely made a statement as to why there was a "maybe" beside Carolina. The other 4 teams have all been closer in the past 3 years to winning a national title than USCe has in the program's entire history.

Is that really that difficult to comprehend?

I can understand the Cack fans being excited since their program has reached new levels in the last 4 years that were never reached in the previous 100, but this is hilarious.

It's stupid reasoning. Just because it hasn't happened before doesn't mean it can't. Otherwise, no team would ever do anything different.

Sorry you can't understand this.

god you're a dumbass. I completely agree that USC is no more than a 'maybe'. Where have I said differently? My point is that UGA and LSU are also no more than 'maybes' right now because of what they lost.
Try not to let your hate for USC mess up your reading comprehension.

We're South Carolina so we should be happy with what we've gotten so far and not want more


ETA: Or dare think we can be more. The blasphemy!

So, no response to the lack of CB experience/talent, the lack of an experienced pass rush, or how losing your program's most successful QB in school history will affect your entire offense, specifically your running game?

I guess that doesn't matter either.

Let's face it, USCe could do it this year, but it would take doing 2 of these 3 things: winning at AU, winning in the Swamp, or beating UGA at home w/o Lattimore on the roster. All while replacing the school's most successful QB of all time and the school's most talented defensive player of all time. That would be unbelievable and I would applaud USCe for their accomplishment.

I'm sorry you can't understand this.

I'm not arguing why we can or can't do it. I simply said your reasoning was stupid, and you took it straight to the vagina.

Why are you so upset?

Go back and reread the thread. Explain to me how you came to the conclusion that I'm the upset one.
