Ok, before I get attacked, yes i know its a BR article. However, this is not a average joe writer with bias facts.

It may not be 100% legit, but kinda interesting.

You may not get attacked, but this will still get deleted most likely.

gamecockgal · 03-01-2013, 06:28 PM

In before delete...

But actually the story isn't so bad.. for that website.

I understand exactly where you are coming from... I got himmed up for the last thread I started about Clemson using the state plane, even though two weeks later it was proved to be right... I appreciate ya, even if I might be the only one... lol

It's not about "being right"

It's about not posting garbage sites.

Will Folks, for example, might get it "right" every now and the, but he's a tabloid author. For each one he gets right, he gets 10 wrong, refuses to name sources, and just damages those he hears things about through those unnamed sources. Did you me it when Will Folks attacked the character of Scott Wingo? By posting links to his site, you're supporting him.

I'd actually like for us to have a rivalry with UNC. I don't think we will/should play every year, but maybe like every 2 or 3 years. If we have a border rivalry with the state below us why not the one above? Plus the name is similar.

If it happened, it obviously wouldn't be a huge rivalry like UGA is but I think its good for both states, and many people would be interested outside of SC and NC.

NO similarity whatsoever between Tobacco Road and us!

Guess you and I cancel each other out. You want to give 'em a helping hand, and I want 'em to rot in ____. LOL.

As crappy as BR is, they might as well be the Wall Street Journal compared to that dbag will folks and fitsnews.

Interesting article. I don't think we are ever going to play enough for a real rivalry to become solidified with UNC like in the past. I don't see an annual game ever happening.

UGA is our border war rivalry game.

UGA fans don't really view us as a rival-they've got GT, Auburn, Florida and detestably Tennessee ahead of us. I've talked to some UGA fans that even ranked Clemson ahead of us.

I think it'd be pretty easy to build up a rivalry if we just played them consistently.
I'd like to see a home-and-home series played against UNC once every 5 years at least, and not necessarily in consecutive years. That way every class gets at least one game against them, and 4 games spread out over 10 years might be consistently enough to garner some national attention.

News flash dude... We DO play Georgia consistently. Last years game is an anomaly as we crushed them, but most of our games are close.

By "them" I obviously meant UNC.

And by consistently I meant more frequently. You missed the point of my post

I bet we've taken over Tennessee's spot, as a major rival, the past 4 years. Guaranteed.

Probably, although some UGA fans will never admit it.

But that still means at best, we're 4th on their list.

CockTail · 03-02-2013, 10:16 AM

I enjoy or rivalry with Wofford better

They will not continue the series, they will get tired of pensil-ing in that L before the season begins. Sucks starting the season 0-1 every year.

Well, they sort of border more than 2 states, unlike SC. IF we keep playing them well, and contend for the EAST, EVERY year, we shall become a major rival.

I think we already are, due to the way Georgia flat out got shell shocked, last year, in Columbia.

FearThethumbandDJ · 03-01-2013, 09:45 PM

They wont want to play us again after we smash them and take their recruits.

I Bleed Garnet · 03-01-2013, 09:46 PM

I'd prefer a rivalry with a fan base that cares about football.

FilchCock · 03-01-2013, 10:21 PM

We've already got Clemson and the SEC. No sense toughening up our schedule too much. The only thing I feel about this year's opener is nerves.

JaxcockFL · 03-01-2013, 10:52 PM

Tar the screwholes. No reason whatsoever to schedule them again.
