Lol from your mouth to god's ear... but I doubt it.
OL can't be any worse and theoretically Briles' systems should be good for Sellers but I don't know if we have the horses in the WR or RB room to really make a big difference.
Defense ought to be fine, but the schedule is brutal. 7-5 is my prediction.

Maybe you should look at his Daddy's record as HC at VT his first years.

Across his first five years as a major-college head coach after moving to Virginia Tech (1987–1991), his record was 22-33-1.
Shane's record is better than his dad's.

The schedule, even with 9 SEC games, is easier than most years. If the record is any worse than 8-4 he should be fired with the talent on this year's team.

why does A&M own yall so much? South Carolina and Arkansas both cant beat A&M and always shite the bed
South Carolina beat the brakes off of A&M in 2024 and nearly beat them again last year.
I’m sorry was your rebuttal really…….well they beat em bad once and almost beat em a second time in 14 attempts lol

SC beat TAM in 2022 and 2024.

That’s a take …

Naw. We want Beamer gone. Bottom this shite out so we can get rid of all of Tanner’s retarded hires one by one.
I don't mean this is a disrespectful way, but I am curious what do South Carolina fans expect based on their budget and program?

Is a winning season with a bowl game along with being competitive in our losses be to much to ask

That's a pretty big ask for your schedule to be honest.
I just know that you seem competitive just coming up a little short.

Got Cocks over 6 1/2 all day. Also Unc under 4 1/2 wins.

You're worse.
We at least have a national title, SEC championships, and a winning record v Clemson.

FIFY
It explains why so many fans of Auburn are Manic Depressives. One must feel great empathy for an Ag school with Georgia on the Left side and Alabama on the Right side. The pain and crazy is real!

Yes, recent history.

This is a fair question. Truthfully, SC should be perpetually 7-5/8-4 with a playoff appearance every graduating cycle or so. When the stars align and the schedule permits, a 10-2 season is the likely ceiling.
Going 4-8 is unacceptable given the resources the program has. I really don't think that's unrealistic or a stretch. Will SC truly be in the hunt for an SEC title year-in/year-out? No. But comparisons to Ole Miss' recent run or Mizzou under Drinkwitz isn't outside of the question. SC has more going for it overall than Ole Miss does (resources, population, budget, facilities), and is comparable to Mizzou, albeit Mizzou doesn't share the state with another program.
In reality, Beamer is *close* to this. 2022 and 2024 shows it can be done. But as a "CEO" style coach, Beamer's success ultimately depends on assistants - not dissimilar from Dabo. Where they differ is that Beamer shows more loyalty than Dabo did, and that has bit him in the arse. Many of us think Beamer has the right crew this year, which is why we have a degree of expectation. If he doesn't have a strong year, he's never going to get it done.

Do you have the wideouts to keep defenses honest? QB is a good athlete not sure if yaw can stretch the field enough.

Nyck Harbor may be the fastest man in college football. If nothing else, he can do exactly what you describe - stretch the field and keep S and CB occupied.
WR is one position I don't have any concerns. Lots of returning talent, some quality transfers, and a good group of incoming HS players. I think Tuggle, Patterson, Bennett and the kid from UCF all will be reliable targets. We did lose Jacobs in the portal to Miami, and that's a significant loss.
