So this Saturday we take on the gamecocks! I realize it's a division road game and they have an amazing amount of talent, but we have been able to play them close and beat them in recent years. They also lost a game they felt they were going to win against UGA so they may still have a hangover from that game. So what do you feel like the chances we pull the upset are?

I took you guys in my pickem with the upset this week. I like VU as a program, and always have. I'll be the first to admit I can't stand Franklin but I think he's a good coach and motivator and gets you guys up for this game after the heart breaker to OM.

IMO this game is going to be won or loss on your ability to contain Shaw and make him stretch the field with his arm and not give up this big plays on the ground on the keeps, read option etc

Containing Shaw will be huge, the read option gave us trouble against OM and South Carolina uses it well. This game will be won and lost at the line of scrimmage, if we handle Clowney and Sutton well and take care of the ball we have a chance.

The read option has plagued us for years. I think we finally have the team that can win in spite of that.

Hopefully we have also worked on defending the bubble screen better.

All I can say about the read option is someone needs to pop the crap out of the QB every now and then whether he keeps the ball or not...
