Will a program ever go winless in the SEC ever again?

Not since the 1999 South Carolina Gamecocks has a college football team with the SEC emblem on its chest gone winless in collegiate play. It was Lou Holtz's first season in Columbia and the Gamecocks were riding a 10-game losing streak. What followed was 11 more instances of hopeless futility:

@ #24 NC State (L) 0-10
@ #12 Georgia (L) 9-24
vs. East Carolina (L) 3-21
@ #23 Mississippi State (L) 0-17
vs. Ole Miss (L) 10-36
vs. Kentucky (L) 10-30
@ Arkansas (L) 14-48
vs. Vanderbilt (L) 10-11 [Homecoming]
@ #4 Tennessee (L) 7-30
@ #4 Florida (L) 3-20
vs. Clemson (L) 21-31

While the story featured a happy ending for South Carolina (they went 8-4 in 2000 and 9-3 in 2001), the 1999 edition of the South Carolina Gamecocks may have featured the last time a team in the Southeastern Conference ever finishes winless.
