Muh bulletin board material.

I guess, next thing you know, Stoops is going to claim this is going to be a street fight?

lulz ... good morning and good luck with that. Kentucky is a good team but SC is better and it'll be proven come Saturday night.

I said it all off season. The SEC East is making a comeback, this is going to be one of the most competitive seasons in SEC history and the Gamecocks are well on their way to taking the next step up the ladder.

All respect to Kentucky. Stoops is getting it done.

ETA:

quote:

South Carolina’s opponent Saturday, Kentucky, is coming off a big win and just broke into the rankings for the first time since 2017. Despite that, the game opened as a pick’em with no favorite.

And then a funny thing happened.

In the minutes after the game was considered dead even, the line started to move. According to VegasInsider, South Carolina moved to being a two-point favorite within 10 minutes of it coming out.

That meany money coming in on the Gamecocks’ side of things, but then things changed.

Within minutes, the consensus line fell back below two, and by 7 p.m., it was back to a pick’em.

USC was favored by 2 1/2 against Vanderbilt and covered with a 37-14 win. USC is 2-1 against the spread this year.

Kickoff on Saturday is 7:30 p.m. at Kroger Field and will be broadcast on SEC Network.

I arrive in Vegas early Wednesday morning. It'll be settled down by then and I'll start taking pics of the big board and posting them.

Something big like inuries or weather could change between now and then.

This should be a good game ... for the Gamecocks.

Wilson can't throw.



It doesn't matter as long as he can march his team's offense up the field.

Pretty confident Muschamp can scheme up something to stop a one dimensional offense.



I'm certain that he can. Scheme is rarely an issue for coaches at this level. The question is whether or not he has the Jimmies and Joes to execute. I'm not sure that he does.

This should be a good game but the line should be reversed.

I'll probably put some on this one, not much because UK always finds a way to let me down.

Yeah, not sure why folks are focused on Wilson's ability to win a game with his arm. That isn't needed at all, as seen in the MSU game.

He will get better at reads and decision making. Until then, the running game, and defense will keep Kentucky in all their games.

The passing game is the least of our worries.

I honestly figured UK would open at +6.5.

I wouldn't touch this game with a ten foot pole.

I'm not saying that, but it is a home game, and I like that UK is an underdog. Just keep the team focused.

I am worried about a letdown after this last weekends game. It's hard to have a winning streak against a good team like South Carolina.

We'll see. Not being able to threaten other teams through the air will come back to bite you I'm afraid, especially in these next 5 games when you play teams that can run and pass.

State's QB can't throw the ball either

It should be a good game Saturday night. South Carolina will have to play better than what they have so far this season in order to beat UK.

Missouri fans seem to have the majority of the negative opinions of the Cats.
