Ah the classic fallback. Triggered, melt, mad, etc.

This is what you use when you have nothing else to say.

Kentucky is better than South Carolina, I agree.

When they joined the SEC in 1992, it was Florida and Tennessee at the top every year, Georgia was 3rd, South Carolina and Kentucky fought it out for 4th and 5th, with Vandy bringing up the rear. This was the case for most of the 90’s. Then Carolina hires two legendary coaches, Lou Holtz and Steve Spurrier. They improve under Holtz but explode under Spurrier to a consistent level they’ve never seen before. I think present day Carolina fans forget their norm is on UK’s level when they don’t have a legendary coach. Want further proof? Here is the South Carolina head to head results with UK since joining the SEC.
1992 - 2000 (UK 5 wins, SC 3 wins)
2000 - 2010 (SC 10 wins, UK 0 wins)
2010 - 2019 (UK 6 wins, SC 3 wins)
In conclusion, the problem at South Carolina is not Will Muschamp. The problem is their fans have forgotten who they really are. I’m just using the facts to back that argument up.


Maybe, One of the dumbest things they ever did was support getting A&M as an annual crossover instead of Arkie. Haven't beaten A&M since that happened.

They will realize in a few years that Muschamp is average at best and they will be average during his time their. Spurrier was a special coach and USCe will likely never find another coach of his caliber who will stay long.

it wouldn't surprise me if SC eventually won the title given it is in the south, the best recruiting region.

Ray Tanner would rather burn the entire city of Columbia than let his precious baseball titles fall by the wayside and out of the spotlight, let it be known.

To answer the OP it doesn’t seem very competitive to resign your program to a specific status. That kind of thinking wouldn’t have worked too well for Stoops and his boys this past year don’t you think?

I mean imagine it; “oh man, we’re just Kentucky, we have losing historical series vs. this team and that team etc, we’ll NEVER win ten games!!”

That’s not how they thought, is it? They went on the field with the intention of winning games and raising the programs status and that’s what they did. So I don’t buy taking the “we’re just mediocre oh well” mentality, especially with fairly recent proof that the opposite is possible.

Yes.

Look where Florida “came from.”

They used to be lower than Kentucky in the SEC “pecking order.”

My oh my, how that changed

5 of Kentucky's wins against clemson came prior to 1960 when Clemson was still a small military college like the Citadel.

Clemson fans are the greatest collection of short-dick, bald, poor, fat, chip-on-their-shoulder inbred Scots/Irish rednecks this side of the Atlantic.

Go anywhere and say anything negative about them, and they descend en force (und in Fett) from their trailer parks defending dear old Clempson.

What a bunch of homozygous hicks.
