re: Can South Carolina bounce back to be a factor in the SEC?

I'm not going to bust on a guy who has bad ribs. That's a tough injury that I wouldn't wish on someone. Wilds is a competent change-up back, and he's been an excellent team-first guy, but he's not as talented as Davis. He can be a feature back on occasion, but it was too late last week.

USC got into a shoot out with aTm, and that's really not been their strength during the last few years- ground and pound has been. Spurrier abandoned the run as a serious option waaaay to early, and after it was clear aTm was going to keep scoring, he had to pass to keep up. It just all fell apart early, and aTm kept their foot on the gas.

UGA is a much better matchup for USC all the way around. Not saying Carolina will win, but I think the game will very much be in doubt in the 4th. If Carolina can win, every goal for the season is very much intact.
