Suit yourself but it is the University of South Carolina.....hence the U in USC. In terms of answering the lame troll attempts by lame trolls, it's a pointless declaration to make, because they'll simply say that Southern Cal is called "SC" as well.....

programs should receive the acknowledgement they deserve. I'm not going to write off clemson considering they've carried the banner for football in South Carolina for many many years

you should just be honored that thanks to the abbreviation someone might mistake your program abbreviation for another program in conversation about college football.

Be honest though, how many people would think South Carolina before Southern Cal when they hear USC?
It's almost like hearing FSU and thinking Fresno St before Florida St.

wut? You think football is what makes a university the flagship university of the state? Even though both universities were founded before football was even a sport?

Do you really need a response to this? Is this not a rhetorical question?

If the thread of discussion was regarding the Mountain West Conference on a MWC-specific forum, and someone posted FSU without first explaining that somehow they were referring about Florida State, and a reader mistook the FSU to be Florida State, then that reader would be a moron. Same if it was a ACC thread topic on a ACC-specific board, and the FSU was mistaken to mean Fresno State....

This thread topic is about a SEC program posted on SEC Rant.....the thread title specifically has "Spurrier" in it: Spurrier has had no affiliation whatsoever to Southern Cal. If you confuse the USC to mean University of Southern California right off the bat, then you sir are a moron.....

Everyone in SC and most people in the Southeast. Same can't be said about arky though. Everyone thinks of Bama when speaking of UA.

Well, now context is very important. "Do you think USC is gonna suck this year?" would probably elicit thoughts of USCe around the country.

It's all based on context, and requires a level of intelligence typically found at middle-school grade levels: if there were discussions of USC playing Notre Dame, or USC playing Stanford, or USC regarding Lane Kiffin. Things like that. Then anyone with half a brain would understand the USC in those cases to mean Southern Cal. Otherwise it's just a very obvious and weak attempt to jimmy-rustle...

Yeah, and this forum is called SEC Football @ SECRant.com, but that doesn't stop people from talking about basketball/baseball/track/other roody poo sports that no one gives a shite about.
Since you want to get all technical and play lawyer ball.

Nice, I may have a small client for you. My Dad's neighbors out here have a mfg firm that needs some help with their erp/prp & logistics software. I interviewed with them but they can't pay nearly what it'd take for me stay longer than a few months before I found something paying better. I'll call ya and explain their situation.

What? If you start a thread about USC baseball or arky track or UF tennis, it will start a discussion. But if you post about Southern Cal, you will be told to move that shite to the msb.
